Unlike in history, we don’t really lose information anymore.

We've developed an unfortunate habit of locking it behind paywalls, though.

Which evolves arm in arm with piracy, luckily.

I haven't watched ads or paid for content in like 15 years. Well, most of the time. I do frequent the movies and that at least is paying for content and there's no way to adblock the silver screen.
