alt Hacker News> We have a long list of subprocessors, but any one individual going through our system is only going to interact with two or three at most.
So, in aggregate, all 17 data leeches are getting info. They are not getting info on all you users, but different subsets hit different subsets of the "subprocessors" you use.
And there's literally no way of knowing whether or not my data hits "two" or "three" or all 17 "at the most".

I think you're misunderstanding me. I'm just saying that there are way bigger fish to fry in terms of privacy on the internet than passport data. In the end, your face is on every store's CCTV camera, your every friends phone, and every school yearbook since you were a kid. Unless you ask all of them to also delete it once they are done with it.
