on the subject of privacy, I read somewhere about a bloke in the US whose vehicle insurance premiums increased threefold - turned out the car computer had been uploading all sorts of stats about his driving (obviously bad), the car manufacturer had sent the data to some company for aggregation or some such, and his insurance company had bought this data from this other company... all perfectly legal...

So a very good reason not to share any more data than is absolutely necessary...
