Data is never "raw" or "unprocessed" or "neutral" or "objective". The decision to record a thing (and not others), the structures and data formats it's pressed into, the granularity and frequency of collection are already a curation and interpretation of the world.
A data set with unclear collectors, without a declaration of the original purpose and goals is basically unusable responsibly.
