Only tech savvy people figure out how to go around this system. Roughly 80% ~ 90% of consumers will not realize what's happening or won't bother figuring out a solution.
Hell, even if only 10% of the consumers paid a slightly higher price the company still earns more by buying your data.
Statistics are on the side of the company. Buying consumer data is always the best strategy for them. The only thing that can limit abuse of privacy and consumer rights is government regulation.
