It certainly seems true that Snail has some sort of weird vendetta against shubla, and also that the OP is unnecessarily exaggerated. Not saying that makes the remaining parts less true, but it still makes you wonder.

I'm trying to compare how much we lose collectively because of the sacred individualism dogmas we are deep into

Snail preys on the collective, ruining the common good, while preaching fear to the individual, shubla did the opposite of that, and that's the times we live in, but yeah I understand all the drama

Not really, food data has been sent for a loong time. Only complains are literally on this thread mostly from people who seem to have something against me anyway. Actual users have not complained about anything, not even after the client launcher update which should've done everyone at the latest obvious that client sends map and food data.

Not sure what you mean?
Reason why map of the other continent being mapped is not given out yet is that there are only so few strips of maps that it may reveal somebody's location.

Pretty sure this goes against the GDPR, which shubla, since you're in finland; you're breaking your own laws. you could get sued for this pretty easily since a lot of players are from europe and this is public software. So i'd suggest adding an opt-out.
