This is nonsense. Given the same tendency is shared by large private organisations, this is throwing one’s hands up with extra steps.

Regulations and laws work. The fact that a section of the INA seems to compel pretty ridiculous amounts of inter-departmental data sharing is the issue.

It's not throwing your hands up. I still do deal with private organizations, knowing they will do the same thing. It's doing a risk analysis. I expect everyone I do business with will fuck me the most they can the millisecond they have a chance. Thus I try to do business with people with the least incentive to do so, or failing that, those with the least leverage to do so.
