Agreed. Assuming the ISP would let you buy all data on men in DC between 40 and 70 y/o, that have moved there within the past 6 months. You could then easily deanonymize it by sorting out which users have gone to which local newspaper

The Android driver model is not what holds back updates. Time and monetary cost of OEM customizations, subsequent carrier bloat, and testing (all performed in series) are what hold back upgrades.
