Well for a start it would involve not being able to keep denying shadow profiles exist, and the joining up of some not especially well understood programmes. Like being able to connect up all those facebook bugs and third party logins to get large parts of your off Facebook activity.
Then maybe exposing some of the third party quizzes, VPN's, and privacy apps that have poured more into the data vats. Possibly exposing the third party sources they've bought data from - connecting other data you didn't knowingly provide.
Who knows what else. Maybe they're afraid that once the full picture comes out they simply won't have users.

Someone asked Zuck during the congressional hearings about shadow profiles (worded as data about people who don't have Facebook accounts).. he deflected and said something like "I'll get back to you on that.".
