Their own marketing and product teams surely use this data.

  So companies can't even look at their own data now? I'm pretty sure most people are okay with that.

    > So companies can't even look at their own data now? I'm pretty sure most people are okay with that. people start caring when those companies own half the world. Apple owns tons of media groups. I don't want to participate in a pseudo market-testing-group just by virtue of owning an iPhone. We're not talking about data and analytics being collected on phones for phones, we're talking about data and analytics being collected on phones and then sat on for a future project, likely not phone related. I'm a people, and i'm not okay with that.

      I understand the argument, my issue was with people conflating three things: 1. Collecting data for internal use 2. Collecting data to sell targeted ads with. 3. Collecting data to directly sell to other parties. My problem with your suggestion to limit internal data analysis (option 1) is where is the line drawn? Can "Netflix Streaming Department" share data with "Netflix Original Programming" in your idea? Isn't that the whole point tho?
