You seem to misunderstand the situation. These contractors were reviewing sensitive customer data, not collecting data of their own.

The contractors in the report are separate from the incentivized people or contractors typically used to collect data.

I can find no incentivized people or contractors collecting data in this story. Just normal users who had their data siphoned up and reviewed by the contractors in this report. I don't understand where your view of this story is coming from given the article.
