Correct. This was the big reason. Data is only important for micro targeting your propaganda.
And also for scams or other fraud campaigns.
For me its hard to believe massive widespread "pig butchering" scams are being orchestrated by some random Chinese thugs with no affiliation.
Micro targeting, like what trump has to do to keep from pissing on the floor.
