They probably could. As they could also charge you a premium and then profit two times on top of you — with your fee and then by selling your data to third parties. Why? Because who would know that was happening? Corporations have no moral compass dictating their actions. The bottom line being what's best for investors.
- manquer 6y agoGoogle uses my watching data in YouTube premium paying or not. They only claim not to show ads , that’s what most users care about . Even if FB sells / uses the data , as long as you don’t see ads and promoted content there are enough people who will pay for it 20 million for YT @ 5$/month is more than 1 billion in revenue per year. Given that 20M is just 1% of the user base , there is probably not a lot impact on the ad revenue either.
