It's bad in concept as well.

All of that data sent to a third party server is going to be public on the Internet at some point. Security? Don't make me laugh. Countries that required government IDs to participate online have already made this mistake and those IDs have been leaked. Just because it's open source or run by $NOT_MICROSOFT won't make it any safer.

The problem with other people consenting to it is that it makes every one else less safe. People get compromised and scammers can use that compromised data to work against people who didn't share their data with the, "Benevolent Open Source Recall Service."
