A client of mine was pulling his hair out the other day over GDPR compliance and its demands on his small business. The business doesn't actually depend on customer data at all; they just... have some of it, I guess. Sure sounds like a liability to me.

If that data is not important to the business then delete it.

I've sat in several meetings where leadership folks are looking for a data warehouse strategy and plan. The topic of importance for data almost never came up. It was "store now no questions asked, mine value later". This was in line to other buzzword sentiments like "data is the new oil" (people believe it, seriously).
