Sure, but the publicly available data is huge for lots of people. I don't see why you'd make an exemption for celebrities. If you can deanonymize people in sensitive data sets, don't release them. Saying "we'll protect the VIPs, the rest can go deal with the fallout of their employers looking at their personal health issues" isn't an option to me.
