Social media over the past two decades has not only built communities, it has built societies, it has built people, it has built you. How does an industry worth hundreds of millions of dollars have platforms that are majorly free? Who is really paying the price?

The ultimate question arises, is privacy sacred or just a commodity that can be bought and sold?
