Right. And by the same logic Amazon makes exactly zero revenue from AWS, which is completely free for "almost everybody". You knew what I meant.

Just read my mind through the screen, you already agree with everything I said. ---- I don't get a dopamine hit from threads like this, they drain me. The opposing side gets a dopamine hit, reputation be damned. I wish everyone would broaden their media sources as well as treasure history more (myself included.) I do appreciate flippant vs. philosophical exchanges like these to sift the comments for nuanced truths.
