You're just an anonymous datapoint in their system, and they've actually done a lot to make sure this always stays the case.


That's the NSA's rationale too. Except often times a collection of data points that are supposedly "anonymous" can eventually be correlated to a specific person.


Deanonymizing from location is possible. I'd rather be a data aggregate than a data point.
