The problem really is though that if, for what ever reasons, someone wants to mess with your life, they can gain access to vastly too much data which can be greatly misconstrued or taken out of context.
To put it into an extreme example, assume they had rights/ability to see what you're thinking - every had a strange notion flash through your mind to pick up a knife and stab someone/something? Now, say someone wants to ruin your life, oust you or make you bend they've got all the dirt they need.
The trouble is that with all this handy information at their fingertips they can cast you into some very ugly light without you having any opportunity to explain or defend.
