"devices collect data to benefit users"

YES. BIG YES.
Any benefit to end user can be gotten without collecting and storing your data. They could read/write a local file. They don't because that's not where the money is.

Iran is the only country that accepted most inspections, but instead of thanking them, we bomb them & their civilians are targeted.
Unfortunately, the director general of the IAEA has never called for Israel to join the NPT; this situation is fraudulent.
