Someone pointed out that the government doesn't need anyone's cooperation to create a registry of Muslim Americans; they can do it based on available data.

Note that a reputedly leaked document says that Trump ordered the government "collect and make publicly available within 180 days ... information regarding the number of foreign-born individuals in the United States who have been radicalized after entry into the United States and engaged in terrorism-related acts". [0] They could make many lists without anyone's cooperation.

I haven't read the entire article, but I find it a bit ridiculous that the author claims that "big data" is allowing the "rise of fascism" in the 21st century. Trump has been known to give the metaphoric middle-finger to big data analytics and marketing [1]; on the contrary, almost every move of Hillary's campaign was dictated by the "advanced" big data engine called "Ada" [2]. While Trump "spent a fraction" of what Hillary did on ads and technology, he did run a paid Facebook strategy [3].

Many government agencies make extensive use of 'big data'. I doubt Trump will stop it.

I believe you're right. He won't stop it. But he also won't let it dictate his actions, unless he's really foiled us all and every character of his every tweet is meticulously data-driven. I doubt it though!
