I see your point about businesses being unsellable.
What's the difference in Facebook acquiring WhatsApp's customer database via purchasing the entire company and it being sold numerous times during a hypothetical WhatsApp liquidation sale? None really, and whatever WhatsApp's (and all other companies) Privacy Policy said about protecting user data is somewhat meaningless.
- madaxe_again 11y agoYup, nail on head. Increasingly the value in a business is the customer base, and therefore their data - this will only continue as the service economy grows and brand continues to be king.
