    I very specifically want an app that collates all the information that can possibly be gathered about me in a way that I can utilize and abuse it myself. For me there is a lot of utility and value to be found with this sort of thing.

    Of course the security posture of said app needs to be rather robust. And instead of it being an app it should instead be an SDK that I can then choose and control my own storage medium for.

      Fair, and that’s why this should be opt-in: I have absolutely no use case in my life for this that I’m not already meeting elsewhere but I know I’m certainly not everyone.

      I don’t begrudge other people using it, I would just very much prefer to not use it or, in the case of what Microsoft tried to pull, be shoveled into using it by default-enabling it and then likely nagging you endlessly if you dare to turn it off, like they do with everything else in Windows these days.
