As a possible user of one or more of those platforms or any platform for that matter, how do you feel about the author’s statement?
I’m working on a Business question and need guidance to help me study.
On page 10 of our textbook, the author writes: “If you are not paying to use a platform like Facebook, Twitter, You Tube (Google), Instagram or Snapchat, you are the product. It is your attention that is being sold to advertisers.”
As a possible user of one or more of those platforms or any platform for that matter, how do you feel about the author’s statement? Do you know what he means by saying you are the product? What does he mean? Were you aware of possibly being a product and not a customer? Does that change in any way how you feel about a platform or platforms that you use? Do you still feel comfortable using the platform knowing you are the product?
