It sounds like the assertion here is that the data is used for reasonable purposes and improves the user experience. That's likely very true. If I prioritize privacy over that better user experience, though, that should absolutely be something I'm allowed to do. I might not want to give a stranger at a bar my real phone number, so I give them a fake one. Maybe this leads to a worse experience than if I just said "no thanks", but I really value the fact that I'm allowed to do that.
