      It’s a for-profit corporation, always was. The only thing changed is people started to actually care about it a bit

        no problems with being for-profit, the problem is getting money from selling the private date of those using your product

          It is a problem for being for-profit. When you’re for-profit, you’re seeking profit, and personal data gives you that profit. No way to not connect the dots.

              If you can’t understand what the difference between the for-profit organization, and a non-profit with operational cost, you need to go way back to the basics

            You can entirely be for-profit and earn your profit without the reselling of personal data. It was more common before net 2.0, for example Google first served you one or two links of ads based on your search. No saving and forwarding user data, just simply “for X amount, your webpage will be displayed to users searching Y keyword”
