I signed up for YouGov once on a whim, felt like it might be nice to get some sort of payoff from answering questions. Ended up not doing any questionnaires because not only did getting profiled feel weird, I realized it was a fraction of the earnings from an hourly wage.
The paradox of polling is that you can never afford to do it well. Maybe it's worthwhile to the participant to collect the opinions of people that make less than $10 a day, but those people's opinions are not valued by capital. For anyone whose opinion is consequential, polling would have to pay them for their time, and this would be probibitively expensive. This is the same reason why jury duty is mandatory.
