No they do not. Most data is utterly useless outside of the original company. It's also protected by increasing privacy and security regulations. And there's no magical broker you just call up to sell it to.
- threatofrain 7y agoThat’s true but I know people who sell and buy data, and it comes at different price tiers and quality.
- manigandham 7y agoThat doesn't support the statement that "all companies sell data at some point."
- threatofrain 7y agoI’m talking about the magical data market.
- manigandham 7y agoSure, there's some shady folks trading some spreadsheets for $20. No multibillion-dollar company trades data that way.

- lonelappde 7y agoHow does the price of the software affect how useful the data is outside of the company? That was whiplash-inducing goalpost-moving speed.
- manigandham 7y agoWhere did I say it did? Can you state what data Zoom would be able to sell? to whom? and for how much? I have 12 years of experience in adtech. I know the major data markets (ads, credit bureaus, banking, retail). People vastly overestimate the quality, usefulness, and price for "data", and don't understand any of the regulations around it. It's only worth what you can legally do with it. That's why most companies don't sell it. They don't have anything special and it can't really be used anyway. Zoom doesn't have anything worth buying.
