No. I'm just forward enough thinking to see it. Data can be extracted and saved for a lifetime, consent or not. And we just entered this always-on digital age around 2012-2013. We know the dangers of using tobacco. We know the dangers of alcohol. And we know the dangers of cold pills (even if they aren't normally abused). We have no ideas about the longterm dangers of massive data collections. And I would posit that what we currently know about the abuses of data, that it is more dangerous than the aforementioned things. Most of what we have to look forward to is fiction books and tv shows and movies.
