Maybe it won't affect you, but it might affect your parents, your siblings, your children.

An easy scenario I can think of is extortion.

Realistically Google and Instagram aren't gonna extort anyones parents.
Maybe they do. Maybe you just don't know about it because they're extorting everybody who knows about it. How can you be sure?

Yeah I know, I'm exaggerating of course. But you shouldn't just give others a weapon they can use against you.

His kids might go into politics, good luck not getting extorted then.
