Uhm. This already includes phone numbers called, calls received, dates, durations. Also, it's well-known among even amateurs and armchair intelligence analysts that "metadata" is usually more than sufficient to obtain a complete profile of an individual's private life, and it's been confirmed at least once by US Mil-related interests that they have killed foreign terrorist suspects based only on conclusions drawn from metadata.
So even if it "just contains so-called metadata", that's probably still enough data to know the exact time you use the toilet in the morning, and for how long. Literally. (ref: Dozens of recent papers on metadata profiling)
