As I said, you asked "Is not more information better?", and you asked it in response to KenJackson's statement that "Regardless of who is gathering data on me or how, I want less of it". I said more information is not always better, and I still don't think you've given evidence to the contrary.

Dictionary.com's first definition of knowledge is:
Quote:
acquaintance with facts, truths, or principles, as from study or investigation; general erudition: knowledge of many things.
So it would appear that my PINs and passwords are indeed knowledge. I'd prefer to keep that knowledge private.
