This is a terrific example of the unintended consequences (from the end users' points of view) of sharing contact information (and so much more) with these entities. I try not to beat people over the head on these issues, but I've definitely been sharing this story with loved ones to try to raise awareness of the fact that while they think "they have nothing to hide" that they actually do, and we need to protect each other from corporate surveillance.
