We learned this from meta didn't we? A user is worth about $15 a month?
I don't even know if this is true, but I'd love to know more.
Maybe we're worth £4 a month, but they just decided to pull a higher price out of their ass to dissuade everyone from paying.
I suspect the small amount of people who decide to pay will cost more in infrastructure, and causes more headaches to meta anyway.
No we didn't. We learned they were required to offer an 'ad tracking free' experience and that they priced it at $15/month. As that experience only exists as a result of a law suit - we have no idea what a user is worth.
Because they were limited by what they could charge to 'sounds reasonable' and 'unlikely to cause further lawsuits'
