Even if I could trust a random person on the internet, even if I could trust them to never change their mind, even if I could trust their security to be flawless... I cannot trust the company that will buy their data at some point in time.

They could even genuinely respect your privacy and have perfect security, but then be acquired by a bigger company who can do whatever it wants with your data.
