This raises the interesting question; how much is our attention really worth, say, per month, when it comes to ads? Per this vox article, https://www.vox.com/recode/2019/6/24/18715421/internet-free-..., it would cost $35 per person in the US per month to replace ads in the US to cover the profits from ads. Maybe this isn't the right way to think when pricing attention though.

It depends on various factors like region, person's interest etc.

Facebook valued North American user at about $112 per year while globally it is about $25/year. Twitter is about $ 9 per user and SNAP is about $6 per user.
