Insurance companies refusing to pay because of $reason based on deanonymized data. Ad companies or bigPharma bombarding you to get new pills because they want to sell more pills. Black mail because you have embarrassing disease.

There's a lot of money being spent on deanonymizing data, and I would never count on it ever being able to remain anonymous with that much incentive.
