Sure, I'm aware, but this is different.
Collecting anonymous statistics about its users does not include automatically generating a database indexed by individual based on their private data. One is par for course when selling bundles of users according to demographic to advertisers while the other is fucking crazy.
Mining public web data for building a database like that is one thing, but mining individual private data like this is crossing a line.
