Did you even bother reading that, or were you just jumping on the chance to use the word "metadata" like you were actually making a point? The "metadata" in question was phone location info, which every carrier has and they don't need access to your phone or your Outlook emails to do it. I'm also going to go out on a really sturdy limb and say that the CIA/NSA/whoever doesn't care whether you clicked "Accept All" or "Reject All" when they're hoovering up "metadata".
