It took me a while to realize what the problem is. For a long time, we've seen sponsored content as a bad, evil thing, that is driven by greed and capitalism.

It took me a while to realize what the problem is.
For a long time, we've seen sponsored content as a bad, evil thing, that is driven by greed and capitalism. ( See corresponding Wayne's World moment https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KjB6r-HDDI0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KjB6r-HDDI0 )
This still stands for many situations but it seems like there are people out there only accepting and promoting things they:
- believe in
- have no issues with ( neither moral, nor technical )
- or even actually use them.
All these cases are, in my opinion, valid cases for accepting money and is pretty far from evil.
Image a world where all the commercials are done by people actually believing in the product - and not the money behind it.
- manigandham 11y agoI'm not sure you described any real problem. More like the creators have no clue on how to run a business. No different than many starving artists who have no monetization talent or abilities.
