I didn't even see that part of the FAQ. That makes sense.

Thanks for making this. It's definitely better to have some data than none.

What confidence to we have that this data is true?

Is this something that could be verified with homomorphic encryption?

No. If users send unencrypted data to a service provider, they can never use technical means to verify what the service provider does with the data. For example, suppose that some category of user data is automatically printed out on paper every night.
Right, of course. Thanks.
