Not sure if the "Who would have any interest in tracking people in this manner?" is really relevant. Based on the collect all, hoover all metadata etc that seems to be going on, _anything_ remotely possibly useful seems to be interesting.
And the big thing is that this data can of course (and will be) correlated with things like cell tower location, wifi hotspots all kinds of other metadata.
