Nonrivalry and the Economics of Data
(September 2020) - Data is nonrival: a person's location history, medical records, and driving data can be used by many firms simultaneously. Nonrivalry leads to increasing returns.

No one wants to own their data until the platform where their data lives enshittifies to the point of unusability and/or starts selling their data in ways they didn't expect. Like, 99% of ppl are here because Elon owns Twitter. I get why people don't care, but they tend to eventually every time.
