this is better. My suggestion is that the metadata is not linked to a complete profile.

I would like to understand a little better your comment about "metadata is not linked to a profile". Do you say by not linked to a profile, there shouldn't be a way for a hacker to figure out the metadata of a user? Or you mean "metadata" should be associated to individual accounts(say dropbox), so incase of a breach, only the metadata for that account is compromised and not for all the accounts of a user? Thanks for your time.
