And what I am saying is that I know multiple people, who were definitely not affluent, who fought hard to be able to break into the industry, and would be extremely insulted and upset that there are people out there who would have tried to tear these opportunities away from them, and probably permanently prevent them from breaking into the industry. Just be careful who's opportunities and jobs you try to take away from people. That might have been their only shot.

That's under the assumption that the companies would not have offered a paid internship instead. And as said before, I don't believe that there a many legitimate reasons where a company that is able to offer proper internships is not able or unwilling to afford a meager internship salary if not for questionable motives. (Also, what are you trying to do with the overly emotional aspect of bringing up your friends here? How is that supposed to work, should I bring up a tearjerking story of people who are "extremely insulted and upset that they were not able to afford an internship because affluent people would intern for free"? And then repeat your last paragraph, verbatim?)
