This is sad. Can't help but think about a speech in the recent Westworld finale: > Since I was a child, I've always loved a good story. > I believed that stories helped us to ennoble ourselves, > to fix what was broken in us and to help us become the > people we dreamed of being. Lies that told a deeper truth. > I always thought I could play some small part in that > grand tradition.

In both cases they do it for money, both are profitable, and yet the effect is very different.
