Also a very precarious idea imo. It makes an easy target for social engineering, targeted marketing, etc.

I assume if a nefarious actor made an instance to sell behavioral data, they would have a field day if every account of a person was linked.

Edit: The idea in itself is good. For that we need to make assembly, sale and possession of behavioral data illegal.
