Why Google and Facebook Should Be Treated Like Banks?

Pavel’s new published article is featured on Entrepreneur.com.

Our personal data has become such a valuable asset that tech giants should be forced to use it fairly — and deliver returns back to us.

For hundreds of years, banks have paid us interest in return for holding our money and extracting profits from it. In the process, they became the richest institutions in the world.
Now companies like Google and Facebook have become the world’s richest institutions — by extracting profits from our data rather than our money. But, this time we are getting zero interest in return.

When we use products from Facebook, Google, Twitter and other giants who make their money from advertising, we feel they are free. After all, we’re not handing over any cash or tokens in exchange for the services. But, we do pay a very high price for these services — through our personal data.
