Yes, but to make it worthwhile you need a lot of data and the price scales linearly.
Let's say my phone gets $10 cheaper because of all this crap ware. If you have the aggregate of 1000 people that cost someone $10000. Is that really worth it? Is 100000 people worth $1000000? Is there some point at which the aggregate data becomes so valuable it overtakes the per-user cost?
That's what I mean - the marginal value of one person needs to be quite big for this whole thing to make sense.
