If you have some genetic trait to have a chronic health issue, insurance companies might and likely will raise your rates or just deny coverage. Paranoia? Maybe, but who knows what they will be able to do in another 20 years with that info.
I carry my cell phone with me everywhere. I truly can't care less if they track me back and forth to restaurants, grocery stores or the car parts stores. I use credit cards and debit cards. I have had both hacked, but it never cost me a penny, just the aggravation of getting a new card.
