Not this one. I like to keep my private business private and Microsoft hasn’t been so good at that and corporate America in general hasn’t been so reliable in trustworthiness regardless of the “agreement”.

I’ll trust my personal health information to a private doctor who rather than any institution. And one who understands that his ethical obligations pre-existed and exceed HIPAA’s non-privacy standard.
