Is there some evil villain angle to this. Like the data is hosted outside of any country thus not subject to any laws or regulations.

That sounds like privacy, not evil.
Because history, as well as current events, tell us that governments will absolutely make privacy illegal, so if you can do an end run of them by not being beholden to ANY government, then that is absolutely a good thing.

Oh boy you are naive if you think that’s the result of no regulation.
The real result will be monetization, selling the info to everyone who wants to buy including governments.

Naive? No. What’s naive is thinking that if you give power to anyone over your own data , even your government, that it will.protect it.
You think the EU cares about your privacy? I know my own government is doing it’s level best to destroy mine, but at least I’m aware of it.
You, however, have the naivete of Pollyanna and think your vaunted EU is better.
