What harm does public data have to you? Couldn’t one just ignore the ads? You can’t see anyone watching you, is public data good for public records? (I’m just curious). I know this sounds weird but is public data good for historical preservation and knowledge increasing the importance of the individual? And does public data lead to better products?

If your data is available to the public, people can also learn your behaviour, likes and dislikes. From that information
- Authorities can coerce you to do something you do not want to do (like make a false claim) because if you don’t they can use your dislikes and deny your likes to make you suffer until you relent
- Advertisers can push advertisements of things you like and make you spend a lot more
- Thieves will know when is the most likely time that you and your family be at home and break in during those times
