Why shouldn’t it? They are interested in personal data, not some fabricated online personalities.

Let it be the perfect counterargument to every moron who says “I’m not that important”. Yes, you are. If you weren’t, the Big Tech wouldn’t go to such length to acquire all the data about you, they can put their sweaty palms on.

You are human, and therefore data. Anything helps them train AI and use you for marketing data.

I’m not saying it shouldn’t, but that IMO, nothing of value was lost.
