Companies typically pay their workers
I am creating the product that they sell
You really aren't. You're a small piece of the product that they sell.
Look, if they can’t afford to make a profit selling people’s data without paying everyone at least minimum wage then the industry shouldn’t exist
Cool, where's my small piece of the profits?
If you don’t own shares you aren’t entitled to any of the profits.
Nope, you’re just raw materials to be mined.
Then I own the land and they should be leasing it from me
You’ll own nothing and you’ll like it, get back to work
