Not every agency has access to every other agencies data, and that's how it should be. There is nothing stupid about implementing principle of least privilege at the government level in the context of data access.

It is kind of stupid to advocate for just giving everything carte blanch to the government when they don't need it, as Europeans tend to be so eager to do.

Yes, the government has access, but let then get a warrant if some agency has a reason to access it.

That's not an argument against my point in any way, and that little factoid doesn't solve the larger issue I note.
