Fitbit: Brand Overview
Before that, let us first begin with a bit of background. Fitbit Inc. was founded in the year 2007. And it primarily manufactures activity trackers. Over the years, the company has gone on to become one of the leaders in wearable technology. Eventually, the company was acquired by Google in November 2019. The estimated cost of acquisition—$2.1 billion.
From a financial standpoint, it was a great move. However, the acquisition of Fitbit by Google was a concern for many. Primarily, people were concerned about the privacy of their data. Google and data privacy really don't go hand-in-hand. Thus, it was a reasonable concern, on the customer's part. However, having said that there have not been any reported issues regarding this topic. So, it's just a point for concern for now and nothing more than that.
