>> The problem here is this wasn’t about MAU. JPMorgan wanted a verified student data asset they could market to, so stale accounts were fine. Diligence focused on whether Frank had “records” (name, email, DOB, etc.), not whether those records were active.

This isnt about inactive data, they had an outside data scientist create an artificially generated usage dataset!



That's not what I said.

JPMorgan thought they were getting legitimate users of the product at some point in time - they didn't care whether or not they were currently active, hence vetting ops didn't really matter much.
