The rapid development of e-commerce is benefited not only the evolution of information technology in the past two decades, but also the boom of big data resources produced by a hugely heterogeneous user base. That’s what makes China and United States the top two largest e-commerce markets in the world and why China is more than U.S. in e-commerce share of total retail sales nowadays. This paper seeks to examine the cause decided by institutional differences and commercial value that are two of reasons of China society is more likely to accept than U.S. in perception of BDA in e-commerce. In brief, it better for U.S. e-commerce corporations that cooperate with big data companies closely is suggested in this paper.
