> It’s always been that way. Before Twitter, it was private radio stations, private TV stations or private newspapers. You can listen to TV and radio stations for free without an account or subscription and they can't cancel you (unlike FB/Twitter/etc). Newspapers tecnically you had to buy, but reading the headlines at the newstand was free and you could always go to the library of coffee shop to read the whole thing for free.
