The pessimist in me says this is the regular old "If it's free, then you're the product" situation.

This seems like a clever way to collect valid mailing addresses. People are also likely to include personal information in their praise messages, which could be valuable data.

Their Terms and Conditions and Privacy Policy state they reserve the right to share collected information with service providers, business partners, and affiliates. They can use your data for "other purposes" including "data analysis" and "identifying trends." They can share your information with "business partners to offer you certain products, services or promotions."

The terms look like boilerplate that only addresses "your" data--not the information you enter about the target. If they end up selling the addresses/names/activities of unwilling participants, their "don't sue us" clause from the video may not hold up in court.*

Aren’t there data dumps freely available online with contact information for pretty much anyone? In that context, why would the data from this small project have any monetary value?

[cootsnuck]

It wouldn't. This site just has a strong bias towards reactionary yum yuckers.
