We just need to go back to paying for services. Free free free everything forever is not a sustainable business model. That’s why the big players just sell you to advertisers instead. And everyone is getting pretty grossed out about how much data that actually takes on you, so we’re passing privacy laws. Those laws mean these services can’t be free anymore.
Good. They shouldn’t be free.
EXACTLY! That's why Streaming Services, Online Shopping and tech producers like Apple have NOT begun to Enshittify!
They have. Smaller catalogs, more ads, more restrictions, more extra services pushed to users...
