I am surprised! I thought one of the hallmarks of american culture was its
suspicion of government and authority. It seems this attitude goes against
that? =(

Your guess is as good as mine.  I see lots of people who are very suspicious
of the government but think it's perfectly fine to give as much information
to large corporations as possible.  Personally I would put far more faith
in the government than in health insurance companies or even Amazon.
