EXACTLY! That's why Streaming Services, Online Shopping and tech producers like Apple have NOT begun to Enshittify!

As far as online shopping goes, if you’re getting free shipping and returns, there’s your answer.

And streaming services are just becoming cable again, so that’s not really surprising. Netflix with all the movies and shows for $10 a month was completely unsustainable.
