What do you even do with 50gb of tracked data?

Categorize/profile it and sell it to the highest bidder. The more corps. know your every detail, actions and reactions, the better chances there are of said person(s) to eventually cave and buy their stuff or pay for services.

Simple example: If you know that someone is in a curtain age group (say 25-35), has paid for car insurance before and what state they currently live in, then car insurance companies/corps. will target you with their ad(s).

Metadata is often more interesting/useful than the data itself
