The author mentions at the end that monetization of your own data is the option offered by data ownership. But I am not sure that there is money to be made by an individual. Facebook makes about $25 / user / year. Say there are 100 companies willing to buy your data -- would you sell all of your data (out of your "digital locker") for $2500 / year?
- the_watcher 8y agoIf it's the equivalent of what's already given for free, yes. I'm skeptical that this is remotely plausible, but yes, I would happily accept $2500 for the status quo.
- JustSomeNobody 8y agoAnd once you get that $2500, how much of it would you be willing to give to Facebook in order to user their services because they're now not free.
- criddell 8y ago> Facebook makes about $25 / user / year. This feels outrageous to me. They snoop and spy on every move I make online and off for a measly $25?
- maxwell 8y agoThe goal is to snoop and spy on every move everyone makes online.
