We've spoken here quite a bit around data capitalism, surveillance capitalism and algorithmic capitalism. I want to go back to these private companies, these western ones, these American ones: Meta, Instagram and Twitter, obviously, with Elon Musk and X. Is it not true that a lot of our information profiles—click information, geographic information, our tendencies, our preferences—are collected by private companies and then sold to third parties as, really, what the product is: the commodification of the user and not the actual platform? Is that not correct?
