They could ink a deal to make money from our data, but I'm sufficiently confident they stand to lose more by doing so than they could possibly gain.

- dwighttk 8y agoIt'd be interesting to know how much they would lose if they did. There aren't a whole lot of alternatives. Some people currently on iOS would definitely buy Android if they were convinced Apple and Google were equivalent when it comes to selling their data. But how many?
- hyperpape 8y agoYes, I agree. At a minimum, I think it would be a big business model change. If they just exploited this particular bit of information, it would be a small financial gain with a big loss of trust. To make it worthwhile, they'd have to find ways to monetize tons of user data, at the expense of a lot of trust.
