    Wait, isn’t Silicon Valley largely predicated on just this business model: give the consumer access to a platform for free and monetize their activity on the platform with some third party? Look at Google, Facebook, Twitter. Isn’t Robin Hood’s business model basically the same? And isn’t the risk in each instance that a potential conflict of interest threatens to pervert the benefit it purports to provide the end consumer? The only difference it seems to me is that finance is much more attuned to agency issues. I’m not trying to defend Robin Hood’s actions. I think there is a lot to criticise at the operational/implementation level. But, as far as the business model is concerned – hey – we all know there’s no such thing as a free lunch.
