  That's not exactly a widely held viewpoint by the younger generation. Besides, it's not like the offshore streaming sites are engaging in revisionism or dropping shows to subscribing reasons.

  Not everyone knows about alternatives to streaming. For the daily 10000 (xkcd for reference), that's all they know. It's up to "us" to show them there are alternatives. https://xkcd.com/1053/ https://xkcd.com/1053/
