So little that I should probably pay companies to take it.

"Marketers would pay approximately for your data:

$0.2148"
Posted June 17, 2013
$.396
How is having an allergy and extra dime, doesn't almost everyone have an allergy.

Fat People on the Biggest Loser really are worth a lot of money to marketeers. Or any Fat person trying to lose weight, which is 95% of the population in the fat 'ol USA.

I've checked the max price this thing comes up with and it's a touch over $5 per person. You have to be an entrepreneur with every imaginable medical condition, expecting kids while divorced, married and engaged to be married at the same time, while compulsively buying everything and looking for more things online, presumably from your boat on board your plane. Screw $5, I wanna see a movie about this person.

$0.0093...

$0.1193. A pretty significant part of that is from having moved recently.

You are selling yourselves short.

Individually, it doesn't amount to a lot, but the sum gets more interesting if you sell data in bulk.

Ex:

I open some website that offers some semi-desirable service and I ask all of my users invasive personal info I have no business asking given the service I'm offering.

I get 10000 users and sell their info at 0.2$ on average. That's 2000$ dollars right there.

It annoys the heck out of me that most websites ask for fairly detailed personal info even if they don't intend to sell it: it still means that my info is out there and needs to be secured by them and we all know what eventually ends up happening with that.

Unless I know that I'll do financial transactions with a website (in which case I actually want them to be able to authenticate me to the best of their ability), I lie on principle when filling those forms. I put "None of your business" in as many entries as will validate.

There, there. Just because your girlfriend's personal data is worth more than yours do not make you less of a man...I am sure...

It just makes you much less.... interesting.
