This is absurd hyperbole, here’s a trivial proof. The US population is 51.1% female. If you live in the US your gender information is included in this data point, but it cannot be de-anonymized. It is however useful for determining TAM for many products.

Anonymity is a spectrum, and there are many points along that spectrum which are solutions to usable data which also respects privacy.
