-maybe. Depends on the transaction. The currency could be up to the trading parties. Some may be effectively anonymous.
-criminals use the free internet now and use the free real world too. Crime is crime regardless whether it costs money to engage in or not. If gasoline was free do you think crimes would increase or decrease? I'd say probably increase.
-sure large corporations would be able to afford a large number of micro transactions but it seems that is better for society than a bunch of manipulative or irrelevant ads and user tracking.
-no
-poor people would still exist just like they do now. Watching the latest meme video is not a human right. Almost everywhere on earth internet service costs money. I don't see how it is different for content to also cost money.
-no you would not be required to charge for forums but it would be kind of stupid for you not to if most other people were doing it. Just like it would be stupid for restaurants to give away free food. Creating content takes time. Time equals money. Right now the surplus goes to mega advertising racketeers like facebook or google. I would rather see the returns to content creation go more to the creators or moderators.
