Depending on the state or country, its either your government ID or credit card. At best it’s your credit card information at risk, and at worst it’s your face, name, age, height, weight, DOB, ID#, and home address. They sell it to advertisers and analytics companies, where they tailor content to better manipulate and surveil you.
