That information becomes less value the older it is. If you go dark all of a sudden tomorrow, that information will be worth a small fraction in a year. And there's the old saying: "The best time to plant a tree is 30 years ago. The second best time is now."
Then why do they keep it? The collect so much data and keep it all. Then when there is a leak it's worse cause they have so much "useless" data.
Because they're incompetent bastards?
