Data hoarding doesn't just hurt the individual, it's bad for everyone.
The data-selling model will always have a strict competitive advantage against the good actors and so you as the user will end up with no options other than allowing that "legitimate" interest or not being able to access such a service. This has slight "people peeing in the community pool" vibes. Sure it may be "easier" for the individual doing it, but long term everyone just ends up with an unusable pool.
