None of this makes free apps evil, building software costs money. But next time something’s ‘free,’ the real question isn’t how they afford it. It’s what you’re actually paying with. #TechExplained #BigTech #DataPrivacy

Attention selling: even apps with zero ads inside them often share your usage data with outside ad networks. That’s why you browse couches on one app and suddenly see couch ads on a totally unrelated app minutes later 🎯

Freemium hooks: the app stays free long enough to become part of your routine, then locks the best features behind a paywall right when you’re hooked. The ‘free’ version is really a trial that never officially ends 🔒

Data brokering: every tap, scroll, and pause gets logged. That data gets bundled and sold to build a profile of you that’s more detailed than you’d guess, location patterns, spending habits, even how fast you type when you’re stressed.

[Dhaval @Dhavalistic]

Most ‘free’ apps make money 3 ways: selling your data to brokers, sharing your attention with advertisers elsewhere, or hooking you into a future upgrade. Often all three at once 👇

WhatsApp has no ads, no subscription, and is completely free. Facebook still paid $19 billion for it. That’s not charity, you’re not the customer, you’re the product. Here’s how ‘free’ apps actually make money:

@Qualcomm is paying up to $10B for a chip startup most people have never heard of. Why?
Because every major AI player just realized owning your own AI chips isn’t optional anymore, it’s survival. The AI chip land grab isn’t slowing down. It’s accelerating. 🔝📈

🚨Hot take: SpaceX just got @cursor_ai & I am not very happy. The independent AI coding startup is dead. @SpaceX just buried it with a $60B check. @Microsoft has @Copilot. @OpenAI has Codex. @X has @grok. Two years ago these were scrappy startups. Now they’re all inside empires.

🚨🚨Thought healthcare was AI-proof? Think again. An AI model just outperformed experienced ER doctors at diagnosing patients, using only their medical records. Not assisted them. Beat them. The one field everyone thought was safe might be the most exposed. #AI #HealthcareAI
