The internet has gotten 3x shittier in the last 12 months.
There's a reason for it, people don't push back enough. We all need to push back more than we have been.
They're noticing the pushback so far, but they're thinking they can break through it and come out victorious on the other side.
Do you really want to pay a monthly fee to be forced to watch commercials?
The whole point of commercials was that you didn't have to pay otherwise to watch the show.
Apparently this is how cable started, and then they did the same thing lol
That was in back before the Internet though.
The internet was invented in the 60s
I know, I was there. But I'm talking about when it was used by the larger general public, which was in the 90's. Before that, it was people dialing up on modems to BBS'.
