No, it was ideological, but also drew the attention and support of state actors not from THIS country. Like with Cambridge Analytica, in fact.

The data grab aspect serves as a means of control and access into a LOT of American citizens who've given up their identities in order to serve an ideological purpose. They might not have been clear on exactly who was looking to overthrow the USA, but by the time they signed on they'd decided for their own reasons that was what they wanted, so it's not as much a data grab as a pipeline for terrorism.

As much as the data is valuable, control of the people is more valuable.
