But you'd have to assume that Checkout also collected lots of raw data about people and their purchasing habits. It wasn't as if nobody used the service, it just wasn't the most popular.

Not enough data to be useful though. If they can't make behavioural predictive models of you to make ads & sell to the NSA it's not useful
