Pure science is vital. Science relies on data, also, pure science questions the same data. Data is only useful if it can be relied upon. You can collect as much data as you as you like and probably end up with useless information. Imagine if you based you theories on flawed data - result is meltdown. My point is that internet users are all too aware of how information is collected about them. Do you ever wonder why they submit fake information? Because they can. We can all play the game. It's all about trust!
