Yep.
Plenty bad reasons though.
Mostly around abuse of the vulnerable, data-mining, advertising/marketing/psyops/publicrelations, pedophilia, pedovoria, disempowerment, indoctrination, dumbing-down, wealth extraction maximisation, profiling, voter suppression, gerrymandering, insurance scams, etc.
Still struggling to conceive of even a single good reason...
... So it helps us detect the crooked politicians who would vote for such a thing?
