You are, but you're not getting it.

Probs get down votes, but look up data latte, you can put your data on the blockchain (anonymized) and get paid if somebody buys it, eg for market research.

Which essentially is what Google does. Sells your data to the market

Participate in surveys that actually matter.

Seems like yet another survey rewards site except maybe with blockchain and dollars

You can download your Spotify data for example and get rewarded for it.
