What I miss most in many theories about the "value of data" is a clear statement on who creates that value. This is extremely relevant because this "who" is also the revolutionary subject. Who is the digital proletariat in the data economy? Who has to go on strike to challenge the economic power of e.g. tracking companies or social networks?

@malteengeler If your data has value to someone, economically, for research, whatever, you should have agency over how that data is revealed and used…or if it is revealed and used at all.

@malteengeler I think you're too narrow in your thinking here. Because I do not lose my data only because others are exploiting it. Not everything can be forced into marxist thinking IMHO. Hal Abelson, 10 years ago, came up with a "do not harm" principle. I think this still nails it. The problem today are defunct competition authorities and defunct law enforcement. It took YEARS to enforce taxi regulations against Uber.
