???  Seriously?

Because they get free access to your data, of course.
Additionally, they might get government funds to make constitutional
guarantees of privacy moot.  After all, almost all of these companies
will knuckle under to any warrant offered up and besides, if you give
your data away there's no guarantees remaining that are valid..
