Then they have an obligation to fight back. Or they can lose their job because they blindly followed AI.
And resistance can only be collective. Another reason unionisation is as important as it's ever been.
I thought the NHS had a pretty good union, no?
It is but creeping privatisation may change that, as does legislation becoming more hostile to unionisation since the 1980s.
The broader point is that individuals can try all they want to preserve their privacy, but then friends, family and organisations spy on them, often unwittingly, eg when we share with them calendar events or email messages. The only way forward is collective resistance, building alliances and influencing public policy. But it's always been like that with systemic issues.
