Sell the data to government agencies across the world.
Welcome to the information economy, where your startup is the commodity. Silicon valley is the spy capital of the world. I wouldn't be surprised of a lot of VC firms were actually funded by the intelligence agencies at a net loss. The more people use the internet through centralized services with shitty encryption, the more the NSA & privatized surveillance complex benefits.
Even if you don't believe this theory, you must believe that intelligence agencies would pay handsomely for a subscription to technology that can parse and categorize people's mails.
