I have yet to see a share of your revenue for enabling Javascript. Oh, you want it all to yourself?

I have yet to see a share of your revenue for enabling Javascript. Oh, you want it all to yourself?
- talmand 15y agoI don't understand. Are you saying you want to consume the website's content and then share in the revenue they manage to generate from you?
- tobiasu 15y agoI supplied electricity, a computer, internet connection, and a virtual machine to run code in (that's a business model by itself). I may have profited from the content, but I surely have generated revenue for the site operator. And I want a part of it, isn't that reasonable for my time and cost? I'm just as much a capitalist as the site owner. I know my visit to their site has value to them, regardless of the content. We could argue whether they paid me enough in content. But the automatic assumption that this is true isn't acceptable. In fact, the worst and most successful offenders in this business model usually provide the lowest value and often no value at all. See link farms and other blog spam/scams. If it isn't obvious: this is a thought experiment. I'm not actually demanding my 0.0037 cents/view.
