Social media is a public space for information. That being said, it's how the government will use that data in order to "prove" that a person is in fact not disabled.

I can support using social media for evidence during the application process. After someone is deemed to have united capabilities I don't think spying on them is right.

Perhaps if there is a genuine concern that someone's committing fraud, then I would be ok with investigators looking at their social media information.

Thanks again Kaleva!

But if you are foolish enough to post your business on social media, you can expect it to be used against you legally.

So many cases have been made by simply reading what people post.

But disability fraud is such a tiny percentage of their overall budget that's it's cheaper to pay the fraud than to hire PI's to investigate.

With Facebook sharing information to data firms that create "targeted" propaganda (Cambridge Analytica) im concerned that privacy is no longer something people care about.

With this information being gathered by the federal government, I do not trust them to keep the well-being of its citizens at the forefront.

If fraud was widespread, that'd be a different story.

Utterly unemployable people with head injuries, severe mental illnesses and PTSD, completely debilitating heart disease, etc., have occasional great days on social media, even if it's just a few smiling snapshots.

Knowing modern Republicans, they'd deny disability payments to anyone who had ever participated in the Special Olympics.

Various therapies can help with these afflictions. I'm concerned that if someone seems too happy or doesn't show their pain could be casualties in this endeavor.

Thanks!

This the very epitome of a slippery slope we do NOT want to go down as a society, because it basically has no bottom.

Well, unless we WANT a society like China's.
