I think that it's analogous to when my genitals are fondled by a TSA agent because I opt out of body scans. The memory of the feeling of them caressing my shape lives on only in their brain instead of being permanently recorded in a database.
One problem I've recently become aware of is that LTE and 5g cellular signals are overwhelming the digital TV signals by raising the noise floor in the amplifier stage even though they don't use the same frequencies.
