It’s incredibly cool to see @UBDIncome get featured by the #YangGang campaign to get funding...by doing exactly what @AndrewYang has called for - enabling people to own their data and monetize for their benefit. #Election2020 – at Washington, DC

Want to get a sneak peek of what it can and should be like in a world where data is a property right and you get paid for its use? Go download the @UBDIncome app and set it up. It also makes #DataBanking possible for #YangGang to donate more. I've earned $14 so far with my data.

Our data is ours - or it should be. At this point our data is more valuable than oil. If anyone benefits from our data it should be us. I would make data a property right that each of us shares. yang2020.com/policies/data-p…

@ericweinstein We have facebook banning criticism. Specifically from a project that is promoting #BasicIncome Can we get more eyes on this?
Replying to @Meta
@facebook has banned us 😡— we’ve been fighting it for months and can’t get an actual answer of why. It’s been since we published this campaign image so I have a pretty clear guess they silence those who speak out against their practices

Of course pppl are reluctant to share personal data, regardless of benefits. New solutions designed for ppl to stay in control of their data + preserve #privacy are the way for apps & #marketers to still use data. @martyswant see @UBDIncome & @digime. forbes.com/sites/martyswant/…

So, we made the front page of the @nytimes. The movement to empower people with their data is happening. It’s the only rational, fair and sustainable model for a world where everything is driven by data. Join us in making it happen. #UBDI #UBI #BasicIncome #privacy #data
“Imagine if General Motors did not pay for its steel, rubber or glass — its inputs,” said an economist who recently did an analysis of the value of data. “That’s what it’s like for the big internet companies. It’s a sweet deal.” nyti.ms/2Y609sA

Great to be featured by @qz as a pioneer in helping people participate in the economic value of their data while preserving privacy. “UBDI aims to let users benefit from selling insights to companies or researchers from their aggregated data.” qz.com/1655610/how-can-you-m…

See thread in replies for my thoughts on all the mistaken assumptions in this opinion piece by @sarahjeong for @nytimes @PrivacyProject. Such an exciting new area for technical, ethical and business model innovation if done in the right ways.
A rash of new startups and services want to help you "own" and "monetize" your own private health information. It's a terrible replacement for data privacy, writes @SarahJeong. nyti.ms/2JgPT83
