doesn't make sense for them to sell data though. they're such a big company with so many competitors in literally any space. why would they bother selling it when they can just buy it, hoard it to make their own network stronger?
they make enough money from their own data collection, selling it would actually end up LOSING them profit as that money would go to other advertising agencies.
They literally don't. I don't know why you feel the need to infer some super secret financial transactions. The article is talking about "above-board" financial transactions on ad data marketplaces. Any data transferred to the US government is using their other programs which probably are more convoluted than just handing over money.
