Still, I'd expect the government's bean counters to ensure that any usage of third party analytics involves some ironclad agreement to the effect of, "If you fail to meet <Herculean privacy desiderata>, then we f---ing own you", so at least the government gets something when said third party inevitably violates the agreement.

Except it was the government agency that violated their agreements by providing this data. At least Facebook, based on their response, specifically put in the agreement that this sort of data should never be provided. It seems like the proposal of consequences flows the wrong way here.
