First, yes, data is extraordinarily valuable. No doubt.
While it may be commonly accepted by most, I don't want my personal computer crawling with telemetry. I despise the idea.
The harm is, in my opinion, partly in creep, where just a little more, here and there, leads to a festering, unchecked data brothel. And regarding 'harm' as a necessary parameter for maintaining privacy, dignity, etc; it would cause absolutely no harm to me if I was watched every time I used the bathroom, provided responsible handling of the acquired video. But I don't want this and would object to any effort otherwise. I don't think harm is the only factor.
