One of reasons I am underwhelmed by all the smart sport watches. When eventually their DBs get hacked or they sell data willingly, I dont want my employer to see that I was running in the forest during lunch time, or my health insurance to see any circulatory anomaly if I had any.

Fuck that, I will start ignoring that few years before retirement, not a second earlier. Its a shame, and I know people like me wont bend the direction we firmly head towards

OTOH, my mom went to the doctors because her watch showed data that made no sense (aerobic exercise all day when she was at work - retail is not that much work), and that started the chain that eventually found her cancer early and thus it was more treatable and she in turn is alive.
