> It's a company attitude that it can't afford the problems that arise from bad data collection policies. As someone with decades of experience in privacy-related aspects of tech, let me tell you this: your company is already deceiving itself. It's like an addict, it wants the data, but thinks it can keep things under control if it just doesn't do too much. There is no "safe" amount of personal tracking. No matter what you think your plans are, no matter how much you delude yourself that "that will never happen", the bad things will happen. By deciding that this line of business will profit you (and I am speaking both to the person and the company), you will inevitably and without a doubt end up harming folks that you claim you won't. "No more geolocation than is necessary" is a great example of the addict justifying the fix.
