Income flows and data flows. SaaS means you can constantly collect personal data to sell and exploit.

This is misleading about SaaS advantages. Most SaaS don't sell data, their main advantage is making money monthly by providing a service, not selling data.
I've yet to see a SaaS product that doesn't "share" personal data with 3rd parties. They may not be mainly about collecting and selling/exploiting personal data, but every one I've seen does it.
