Strike against the collection of personal data through edit links

I have started a strike to protest against the collection of personal
information through edit links. I won't edit articles with
articleFeedbackv5_ct_token= ids in their URLs, as has become the case
with the English Wikipedia article Costa Concordia disaster.

Could you explain what personal data you believe is being collected?
From what I can tell, all that is being collected is information on
whether you edit the article after viewing it or not. That isn't
personal.

Moreover, shouldn't one use HTTPS websites to avoid ISP collecting some information about visited websites? (Too technical for me to understand at what extent.) I think it would help in this case, and it's way easier than complaining like that.
