But why would someone bother to try and collate all that information from masses and masses of text on this site when one could so very much more easily get that from Facebook or from random surveys that people choose to click through, or whatever.

But the Facebook and Survey data isn't going anywhere. Just because you think something has been deleted, just because a site hides what you wanted deleted from you, doesn't mean other people don't have access to it, anymore.
What law do you think Dr Bob is violating in not pulling the site down?
I don't understand.
