In some cases, there might by a public interest angle (e.g., some billionaire backing a particular political candidate, with oversized influence in what's supposed to be a democracy), however, even if that were the case, the tracking of various other famous people suggests that the motivation isn't legitimate public interest. It's more like creepy stalking, voyeurism, and abuse of power. And, in the case of some celebrities, who as a category have been known to have mentally-ill, homicidal stalkers, it's even more tasteless, IMHO.
