Selling Human Data - Evil Businesses What does the internet know about you? ► https://youtube.slidebean.com/privacy-check -- We don't just make videos. Slidebean helps founders scale their startups: The Slidebean Platform ►https://youtube.slidebean.com/bd1 Pitch Deck Design Agency ► https://youtube.slidebean.com/84h Financial Modeling ► https://youtube.slidebean.com/pwu Join our YouTube Community ► https://yt.slidebean.com/community #slidebean #startups #privacy - You might think of yourself as a customer of Youtube as you watch this video. You think of yourself as the customer of all these products you use daily. For thousands and thousands of years, humans have been consumers: we traded, we purchased… And we think of ourselves as customers of these free products, but - let me break the bubble for you, you are not a customer. You’re the product. If this product you are using is made by a for-profit company, and none of your money goes to that company- that means they have another customer, and you are just the product. For the first time in humanity’s history, we’ve become the products. In the era of the internet, people's data is a valuable asset that companies and even governments are willing to pay good money for, and tech companies figured out the business model to make it happen. - About Slidebean Slidebean is a platform for founders to scale their startups.
