As long as “free” exists, and the general population don’t understand why it’s free - then sure this will be the case.
I think the knowledge tide is turning on surveillance and there will be a time where people will gladly pay (a reasonable amount) for a service that is working for them.
- Proven 6y agoWhy do you care if someone doesn't mind to use ad-funded platforms? Maybe they value their privacy less than what they get in return. For billions the reasonable amount to pay is $0 because that's what Google charges. You somehow hope more than 1% of people will care about their privacy and forget the same people vote for political parties that wage for endless wars and condone (or enable, with legislation they pass) all sorts of unconstitutional, privacy- and rights-violating behavior.
