about 1000$ per user? is that the value of our privacy? probably because each user uploaded their address book?


Not quite - many of their customers are paying $$ a month for medium to large marketing sends. Their biggest customers probably count for 30% of the overall revenue.

It's unusual seeing a company that sells goods and services for money be valued highly in silicon valley ;)


12,000,000,000 / 800,000 = $15000 per paying customer

(12 billion purchase price / 800000 paying customers)
