Insight - The concept of pooling and sharing community resources is relatively new in the West, but it’s increasingly taking place online.

3. Subscription Sharing - Subscription sharing platforms like DoNotPay are on the rise since they allow users to share their subscription services without divulging their passwords.
Industry Implications
