I totally agree.
To give you an example of metadata, in the last two days I have received metadata—it's not privacy protected—from Alberta, British Columbia, Ontario and some from Quebec. This is from colleagues, but of course I have to be on the Internet, make phone calls and send emails.
The numbers I gave you are accurate from the last 72 hours, but an individual sending emails is not a very efficient way to gather data, as you can imagine.
