The Kenyan Ministry of Information, Communications and the Digital Economy is proposing to sell non-personal data from platforms like eCitizen to businesses, NGOs, and researchers to generate government revenue.

• The government aims to sell at least 1,000 datasets in the next five years, viewing data as "the new oil."
• The initiative involves creating a marketplace costing taxpayers KES 396 million.
• Concerns are raised about the effectiveness of "anonymization" and the potential influx of unsolicited data usage, such as increased gambling messages.
