đ©ș HIPAA-donât: The Government Just Declared Open Season on Your Medical Privacy

Paws Up: Theyâre Coming for Your Health DataâAnd Your Dignity
HIPAA is hanging by a thread, and the government just handed the scissors to every anti-choice lunatic, cop, and corporate data broker in the country. Letâs break down how your most private medical info is becoming public enemy bait.
đ The Platar Database Disaster: HIPAAâs Worst Nightmare
Over 2.7 million patient profiles and 8.8 million appointment records were leaked from the Platar database, exposing sensitive info like diagnoses, names, and treatment histories. It wasnât encrypted. Not even a little. If you thought HIPAA had your back, think again.

đ Roe v. Wade Was About PrivacyâAnd Itâs Gone
Roe wasnât just about abortionâit was built on your constitutional right to privacy. After it fell in 2022, the Department of Health and Human Services tried to patch things up with a new HIPAA rule in 2024. That rule made it harder to share reproductive health info. But in June 2025, a Texas judge struck it down completely. Now states can snoop on your reproductive and mental health history and turn it over to law enforcement.

đïž Executive Order 14788: Internment Camps Are BackâFor the Poor and Vulnerable
On July 24, 2025, Trump signed Executive Order 14788, which gives states and cities full permission to round up homeless and mentally ill people and lock them in ârehabilitation camps.â No due process. No rights. Just a medical excuse to cage people society doesnât want to look at. If you have a mental health diagnosis, you could be next.

đ Project 2025 Wants HIPAA Dead and Gone
Project 2025, the far-right master plan, openly supports dismantling HIPAA. Their goal? Make it easier for the government to access your health records, especially if youâre queer, trans, pregnant, mentally ill, or politically inconvenient. Surveillance is their favorite form of healthcare.

Kittyâs Final Claw Swipe
Your health info isnât private anymore. Platar leaks, Project 2025, EO 14788, and Roeâs ghost are turning HIPAA into a joke with a tracking number. And if youâre marginalized, youâre at the top of the target list. They want to arrest your care, criminalize your body, and call it âorder.â Time to claw back. We donât beg for privacyâwe fight for it.
