BREAKING: Mark Cuban’s “Digital DNA” Bill Hits Senate Floor—Proposal Would Let Americans Sell Their Own Data Like Stock
Washington D.C. – In a move that has Wall Street, Silicon Valley, and privacy advocates in a three-way deadlock, billionaire entrepreneur and “Shark Tank” star Mark Cuban just unveiled his most radical blueprint yet: the “Human Data Stock Act.”
Speaking exclusively from behind a transparent hologram podium (because “I’m not hiding my data, why should you?”), Cuban proposed that every American citizen be given a tradable, non-fungible digital identity token by age 18. Under his plan, every click, health record, purchase, and location ping would be aggregated into an individual’s “Digital DNA Index.” Citizens could then license slices of that data—anonymously—directly to corporations on a public exchange, bypassing Big Tech middlemen.
“Facebook and Google have been trading your attention for 20 years,” Cuban stated. “I want you trading your attention back to them—at market price. Think of it as your personal IPO. Your Netflix habits, your sleep patterns, your voting record… if it’s valuable to a biotech firm or a political campaign, you should get the dividend, not some algorithm in Menlo Park.”
The Catch? The bill mandates a “Consciousness Tether.” To prevent market manipulation, a person’s token automatically crashes in value if they lie in a data survey or if their biometrics show emotional distress while browsing.
Critics are already calling it “The Minority Report of Microtransactions,” while the first human beta test—featuring Cuban himself—saw his personal data token spike 400% in 24 hours.
