The internet was built by a small community of people who wanted information to be free. Now it’s all about profiteering.
I’ll always want info, but will never pay. I have complex psychological models about platforms that selectively curate specific content.
Even Veratasium recently had a video demonetized because he included factual historical information about a suicide.
