We either assume the data will more often than not be used for negative reasons, and stop it, or we assume it will be used mostly for positive reasons and allow it to improve the world. If we do the latter, we treat the minority cases as a crime. Just as we do when police use their access to stalk people. That being said, I DO think we have poor transparency in these cases of who has access to what. I've always said that if it were publicly available to see how many times someone has run my license place and/or drivers license I would be really upset.
