I know the gut intuitive reaction to this is negative-creepy, but I’d much prefer if all monetization of information about me and my shopping/behavioral patterns be this transparent.
Heck I’d like it if ad-based business models had some type of GDPR-ish regulation around it the required companies to divulge something like:
>Your use of this product/service is paid for by monetization of the following pieces of information about you.
>We estimate that this informational contributes $X in annual revenue based on the market value of your demographic to advertisers and data brokers
It’s what happens anyway, So why not? And of course I’d like there to be an opt out & option to simply pay for the service instead.
