New York, New York--(Newsfile Corp. - July 30, 2020) -  Killi Ltd. (TSXV: MYID) (OTC: MYIDF), a global leader in consumer privacy, announces that its Founder and CEO, Neil Sweeney, was recently asked to contribute his views on data privacy to the Financial Post on the privacy push by Apple and Google and a second article relating to the difficulty in obtaining your data from large corporations. In addition to The Financial Post, Killi was also highlighted in Barron's on the impact of COVID-19 and the willingness of Americans to return to in-store shopping.

"As a company that operates with transparency and consumer inclusion, Killi continues to provide insights into the consumer data market. Through the Company's fair-trade dataTM program Killi believes that consumers should be paid a 'dividend' for the use of their data similar to the data dividend concept referenced by California Governor Gavin Newsom and former Presidential candidate Andrew Yang's Universal Basic Income concept," commented Neil Sweeney. "Unlike the proposed solutions listed above which have no mechanism for payment, Killi does this currently every time a brand or platform uses the personal data of a Killi user."

Killi is currently available in six countries, paying users weekly while providing a full transparency report that outlines what data was purchased and by whom.
