It should be written into law that they (the intermediary identity brokers) cannot sell or share any information with data brokers. They should be an independent organization funded by the government, but without its funding tied to yearly renewals (otherwise they would need to curry favor on a yearly manner to whomever is in power).
The danger here is just as much from the government going after undesirable speech as it is about commercial (mis)use of the data.
In fact, that’s the much bigger threat.
