RE: You Should Get Paid for Your Data! [Blockchain is Changing The Status Quo]

in #news8 years ago

That's actually nothing new that Facebook and Google grow on peoples effort. We put the work and they are getting stronger by that. But value that they provide for us is to keep people together, so the question is- is it enough? In some cases yes, but still when you get something on the professional level like for example photography/filmmaking, and you put money into equipment (you can use as example anything even cooking) it gets quite not fair. I guess they should realize that their services are built on people, so they should find a way to give something back to people, not only fun. Why? Because you simply can't live up from fun. Yes, people has daily jobs, but how about people that work is based on social media? Should they work for free? I don't think so.

But will it change for Facebook, Twitter or Instagram? I don't think so too. They are too blinded by making money from ads, they are too sure about people staying with them forever and they don't realize that one day all users would pick any other platform. Myspace is dead already, users went to Facebook, so I guess when nothing changes people will just go somewhere else. Somewhere where their work is appreciated like Steemit, like Dtube. I guess it's just matter of time.
