It is crazy to pay these companies who are already run by billionaries and are already owning the largest sites on the internet.
It’s like people don’t take that into account. Who are we paying? It’s kind of important. I pay smaller companies for email and search because they are not cancers on the internet.
Do you want internet to be like cable TV with 10 massive internet sites that all require paying and all are owned by the same corporations? If not, stop supporting them.

I would rather they be like commercial free paid streaming, then the waste of life, advertisement stuffed, hell holes that were cable tv.
Yeah but its never enough money coming in. So your commercial free paid streaming will either get less and less quality content (happened with Netflix etc), or it will go up in price.
I have become a bit disillusioned with how capitalism works. Not that I have any better system. They all suck because people aspiring to be in power suck.

The solution to that though is competition. If consumers have a choice of where they get their content they can avoid advertising. In the music world for instance, content distribution and production are separated for the most part so you can listen to whatever music you want with whatever platform you want and pick one without advertising. The problem with the movie / tv world is that everyone made their own distribution platform and locks their stuff away from the others, making it more like cable where you don’t really have competition on how stuff is served to you, you only have competition amongst which stuff to watch.

No arguments there.
