MIT’s Erik Brynjolfsson and four co-authors of a new paper tried to calculate the monetary value people assign to certain free goods and services including Facebook and other social media platforms. Since Facebook, Twitter, GPS map services and a host of other apps on your smartphone come at zero cost, then they won’t show up in GDP. The researchers found the median price of giving up Facebook for a month was $42.17.
