informational profits Explanation: The previous user (chym77) supplied a very helpful Baidu Baike entry which I will re-post: 网络上关于信息租的中文定义：当一种生产要素处于稀缺状态时，就必然产生争夺这种生产要素的的寻租活动。对每一个具体的经济活动主题来说，信息这种生产要素经常处于稀缺状态，而信息的拥有者总是使自己成为信息的垄断者，并从中获得垄断利润，由此形成租金，这种以信息为生产要素而形成的租金就是信息租。 Link: http://www.baike.com/wiki/信息租 This is essentially saying it is the amount of "profit money" or interest created by a company that primarily specializes in producing information. This could be monopoly profits, as information organizations are often conglomerates. |
