    You are, but you’re not getting it.

    Probs get down votes, but look up data latte, you can put your data on the blockchain (anonymized) and get paid if somebody buys it, eg for market research.

    Which essentially is what Google does. Sells your data to the market

          It’s an idea to play with… I dont think the specifics are all ironed out, but maybe with more building and more ideas would we control our data and earn from it like the corporations do.

        The pure data isn’t sitting on the blockchain itself, but in a ipfs or something similar. But the contracts and tokens allow you to automate it and own it/give out access to it to a certain extent.

        Its a small project, but I like the idea, could be something.

            You can go pretty far with that analogy. A docker container is just a glorified zip folder in a kubernetes cluster. Yes sure you get some of its functionality, but you’re missing quite a bit.
