What if not enough people do it though? If you don't reach that threshold, aren't you just inflating the amount of data they have to sell?
Worst case scenario, you give them junk data that they cannot reliably market to you specifically. Best case scenario, they realize it's all junk and throw it out. I doubt they'll change their entire model until it's five 9s worth but every little thorn in their foot just for spite's sake.
