How would that benefit the average person?

By giving us the choice of whether someone else should profit by our data.
Same as I don’t want someone looking over my shoulder and copying off my test answers.

What benefit do you expect from that?
Why not?

I prefer that the benefits of those things accrue to me, or to others, or to no one, in accordance with my choice.
In this way, I would gain the economic or social benefits of these activities; and I also, in the case of personal data, would decide who gets to make my business, their business.
