Seeing posts like this remind me of a nice quotation I saw somewhere, which is like "all data will eventually be either public or gone forever". Unfortunately my search skills are insufficient to find the exact wording or author.

I'm okay with that: when I'm dead, do with my data what you will (of course, so long as anyone implicated like chat partners in chat data, are also dead). But I guess the quote refers to shorter timespans than that.
Except with medical history, your data can impact your children and grandchildren (both positively and negatively, but also hopefully privately regardless).
