Advertising and data? Really? So people can’t pay for anything, but companies somehow see value in trying to sell things to them?

Money will still exist. Maybe you don't have any but other people might run around with pocket change. You'll be able to get a free meal from the poverty bot serving A/B testing burgers and cataloguing your emotional responses to receiving and eating them and giving up the rights to your footage for use in advertising material. Good business.
Again, if you--and, in general, your demographic--don't have any money, your data is useless for advertising and marketing purposes.
