Ask HN: What's Your Data Worth?
Found a few articles about per-user valuation and average revenue per user. There are posts on data marketplaces and the likes. Yet, I'd like to understand what people think their data is worth and whether different forms of "putting that data to use" affect that valuation. So here are my two questions for you:
How much money would one need to give you in exchange for your data? -> Imagine a service where you upload all your data and receive some money in exchange.
Assuming one could use your data without ever looking at it and it never leaves you, what would you want in exchange for it then? -> Imagine a service which basically trains a machine learning model locally using your data (e.g. on your computer) and then only uploads that model while you receive some money in exchange.
Does it make any difference? Would you want something different in exchange, i.e. free services or data?
