Depends. Eg: If the goal is to show data about which vendors at a sports game got the most traffic, you can easily share data about how many people went to which vendor, and at which times, without there being any possibility to identify Joe getting a fifth hot dog.

If enough information about the original person is destroyed, it cannot be recreated. Just like how you can't enhance a picture like they do in those serialized crime shows.
