Tracking evasion is close to the concept we in Germany call "Datensparsamkeit" or data scarcity — the idea that only the data that needs to be collected for a certain purpose should be collected.
The idea is: Data that just isn't there cannot be lost, abused or stolen. Or phrased differently: Data is also a liability for you and your users and you should balance this liability with the use it has for you.
The idea comes from Germany's Nazi past, when the Nazis invaded the Netherlands where religion was a field in the official documents, which lead to an very efficient genocide.
