While I agree that many consumers don't place much value on their own data, resulting in them not particularly caring about that data, in my experience it often stems from ignorance of what can be done with that data (if they even know that the data is being collected in the first place). Once the implications of sharing specific data is known, my anecdata has shown that the average person will make some adjustments to their data-sharing habits. At the very least, an informed decision can be made. However, when it comes to intricate technical data from their home routers being hoarded, we can't really expect the average consumer to form an informed decision on the data being shared, can we? I don't think the default should be "collect as much as we can because they probably won't care" in the absence of an informed consumer. Regards, Mu
