I guess both is the best answer for this; an assumption only based on one of LoyceV's offer to me. I once asked about some data on Russian board and he was willing to provide data (paid) since I was going to utilize that data for commercial purpose. Nevertheless, he has done a lot of works out of his interest and all of these works are not paid. So, yeah, data analyze is both for him; job & hobby.
That was a great read of course. I would love to see one of such interview with suchmoon and Lauda if possible.
