Yeah…also coincides with said corps throwing ads on everything. Think they’d learn.

It's not them who should learn. It's us. That it's always a game of profit maximization as that's what the system incentivises. For public companies, if something can be made worse to maximize profit extraction, it likely will be. If something can be made more expensive, it likely will be. Most companies don't make products or serve customers. They make money for and serve their major shareholders. They know what they're doing. We don't.
