    Same reason as any other online company?

      So for selling it to aggregators? That’s bad practice for a VPN-providing company.

        So for selling it to aggregators?

        You really think thats the primary function for user data? Not like, billing?

          Billing? ID -> balance. “Very” important data for hackers. They had more? Like card numbers, names, addresses, etc? That’s a bad practice for VPN providers.
