In Dota at least you can make your data private and your picks/habits cannot be tracked by third party websites or applications.

I feel like gaming stats should have way better privacy options in general.

That's certainly right. We don't provide any suggestion based on private data. For example, gamers cannot see the tags of an opponent if the opponent opted out to be private.

I think if people care about their data it should just be anonymized instead of hidden.

Data from games is such a good way for people to get into programming and data analysis (Speaking from personal experience).

It's easily accessible, real and has a decent level of complexity. Would be a shame for it to go away because people want to hide their data.
