"When it bursts companies are going to be more desperate and will unload all the personal data they have... to any willing buyer."
I have long predicted this outcome and always thought I was being a bit too realistic. It's nice to see someone else making the same forecast.
Of course, only time will tell.
- Phlarp 11y agoInsurance companies essentially already do unload what data they have about you to any willing buyer. Doubtful many folks will stop buying insurance due to this fact.
- ised 11y agoI am not sure I understand the comparison. Search engines and adtech are not selling a product, other than the process of serving ads. If sales of ad space and adtech decline, these companies are in trouble. And their "assets" are mainly personal data. Maybe I missed what you were trying to say.
