No! I'm still hoping that those companies that I despise and that fill the internet with mass-produced garbage (which they call news or content) will finally go bankrupt and stop. Plus, the way to optimize for higher conversion rates with paywalls and subscriptions is to have even more outrageous public claims, meaning even more click-bait-y headlines and even more addictive (they call it "engaging") time sinks. I predict that once Web Monetization works friction-less, we'll see insane amounts of GPT-generated nonsense articles behind paywalls. Because even if people approve the paywall only by mistake (e.g. 0.1% of visitors), it'll still be a solid revenue stream, if you mass-produce enough random "content" :( And if you believe that companies will stop shoving ads in your face, just because you paid them, read this: https://www.samsung.com/us/business/samsungads/resources/success-stories/form/female-fashionista/ https://www.samsung.com/us/business/samsungads/resources/suc... It's a Samsung whitepaper on how using the "smart ads" in their $5000+ premium 8K TVs you can finally reach those people who avoid regular TV because they hate ads.
