> Modern Day Tech people seems to have this traits where everything should be free. How do you conclude like that from the current discussion? People seem to be arguing that they should be able to own things. Not that the things should be free. Do charge me extra for that extra hardware feature, but don't do so monthly.

Not the current discussion but just the general trend of discourse and observation. All Ads are bad, we should live in an ad free world. Charge for content and yet proven not to be a business model for a lot of media. ( It only works on Financial Times and the likes ) ISO standards should be free. Who is going to paid the employees of ISO organisation? 5G Patents are scam, why should they charge for standards usage? Who is paying for the Tech innovation within University Research and Telecom Industry spending billions every year. And the list goes on and on. There is clearly lots of value these brings to the table. I just dont understand why they should be free. And Why is this Intel Software activated Hardware Rent Seeking? The BOM cost of an Intel 10nm inclusive of testing and packing without their Foundry margin is practically a few dollars per core. One could even argue have all the different SKUS have different set of operational complexities. So why is this wrong?

But if it's charged on a subscription basis, it obviously is.
