Re:Privacy is assured. (Score 3, Informative)

Not to cause unnecessary concern, but I work at an association where we maintain a database that contains, among other things, personally identifiable information on all students in a certain field of healthcare. Thanks to the school accreditation process all of the schools in the US must submit the information to our association. Theoretically, anyone of the employees could be bribed (and we aren't even government workers). Essentially, some of this is already being done and no one seems to care, or know.
