Leaked data doesn't even need to be dangerous to life. I, like many others, don't have "nothing to hide", but I don't still want my real name next to a list of content I've watched from streaming sites. Also I don't really want my identity tied to this pseudonym, or any other accounts on any platform. There's a crapload of problems and it would be a heaven for scammers if there was no way to stay at least relatively anonymous around the net.
