What user data did you provide to buy a set of open source components from CoreUI - the company in question?

Also, do you have any example of open source company that monetized user data? Has it happened to you?

The reason that I am asking is that it is very rare to see an open source company being profitable without being focused on enterprise market. Stories of successful ISVs should be praised, not met with suspicion. It seems like anti-capitalist concern trolling.
