The Federal Government knows far, far more about you then most of you can possibly believe.
For example USPS (Post Office) claims they photograph every piece of mail they handle. So they know every gun magazine, flyers, mail from gun organizations such as NRA and packages you receive.
Or how about purchases of hunting and fishing licenses? How is this information shared with the Feds? It is because it is used to determine how much federal funding dollars the State gets.
I can tell you from over two decades working for a large State agency that the laws as we interpret one way are meaningless if a agency wants to implement a policy. The only recourse is a expensive, long court fight taking many years. And you are going up against the deep pockets of the Federal Government who is spending your tax dollars to fight the case.
The information that is called in for background checks is suppose to be deleted I believe after 24 hours and not shared with other agencies. Now who really believes that a Justice Department and FBI full of Obama appointees and career employees that are only concerned about their retirement checks are going to allow that to happen when it is only of time before the Democrats are back in power? (Well technically it is deleted off of that particular computer but it's transferred to another computer system for auditing purposes. Again just twisting words to circumvent letter of the law).
Computer security cannot be trusted.
Besides I don't care what guns you own. All I need to know is that you are a gun owner which is confirmed by the background check. The 4473 just makes it a little more easier to target specific guns.
Oh poo! It's Christmas. I'll worry about such things next year. They will still be around.
