This is a good idea. I think one risk, though is that the specialist companies that hold all the personal data then become massive targets and a single breach would be catastrophic.
Still better than the way things currently are, though.
That is definitely a concern! But as the company's entire future depends on their digital security policies and practices, I expect them to take it pretty seriously. There ~~could~~ will certainly be shitty companies, but hopefully they won't last long and the reliable companies will survive.
