Comment on The man who monetizes dataparent

Comments

Based on the transcript, Shopify isn't even mentioned once within the actual interview.

Shopify is a company that handles large amounts of customer data.

They've sponsored a very positively spun interview on monetizing such data by spamming people via SMS, "sweepstakes", promoting payday loans and other activities that I consider deeply unethical (even if legal).

I'd think that if Shopify was a reputable firm, they wouldn't want their name within a mile of this scumbag. Particularly when he's being portrayed in a positive light.
