This is the primary reason I stopped consumimg news that doesn't directly relate to my interests. Eliminating news and advertisement from my life is the most liberating thing I've evr done.

I think a big part of it is that a lot of people stream on their phones. For a lot of those people, their phone is the only computer they have. So quality is less of a concern than availability. I'm all for the Arr stack, personally, but I can see how streaming has more appeal for a lot of folks.
A surprisingly ok movie.
I love Obsidian. It blows away every other notes app I've used. I use it seemlessly across Android, iOS, Windows, and Mac devices. It's as customizable as you want it to be, even if that means "not at all".
I've set mine up with all kinds of templates and automation to populate and organize my daily notes, notes on books I've read, notes about people I meet, project notes, the list goes on and on...
And if I ever decide not to use Obsidian any more, all of the notes are stored as markdown files on my device(s). So I don't lose anything. Not even the formatting. Just make sure to back up your vault, in case you lose the device itself.
I like the flavor and texture of an unpeeled carrot.

I see your point. I have no illusions that democracy is healthy in modern times. Perhaps not ever? We don't even live in a democracy any more, we live in a corporatocracy.
But doing nothing will solve nothing.
edited to add: In fact, it's our complacency that our corporate masters depend on. Corporate news is designed to overwhelm you. Advertising is designed to lull you to sleep. Together, they make it seem like there's nothing you can do. But that's not true. You can do something. Maybe not the things I suggested, but something. It will make a difference, even if it only makes a small difference for a few people. Isn't that better than nothing?

They'll likely rely on reports from the public. I don't imagine this is intended to go after individuals, but rather,, companies that buy fake reviews by the hundreds.
Which brings us back to the real, underlying, problems with the prevalent model: greed and the concentration of wealth.
Same. I think i could have enjoyed the gameplay but the horror aspect and overall vibe was too offputting.
