Well, if we have people willing to kill us based on the type of socks we like or porn we enjoy, we have a bigger problem than the fact that this information is being collected. It's not like people willing to kill for such ridiculous reasons would be stopped by the lack of available data. Crazies don't really care about fact and data in general. I think you're assuming a bit too much about them.
