The landscape is of course complex... but I think that companies exposing their clients to such risk will only learn to protect their clients rights to privacy and to self-determination once organized groups of clients fight back on the court against this kind of practice. This is a question of human rights, not just a technical feature. Companies need to take legal responsibility over their decisions in any case where the security, freedom and free will of clients are at risk.
