He he. The screws have only started to tighten.
Cable used to cost $100 per month AND had ads.
The enshittification will continue. Especially since the low hanging fruit of the internet are becoming rarer.
- asadotzler 3y agoCable, without premium channels, was $20 a month when I was a kid and there were no commercials. It took about 20 years to grow to $100 a month and with 25% of time devoted to ads. Even discounting inflation, that's a significant decrease in consumer value and a massive increase in cable company profit. Google's ad empire is almost 20 years old. The same level of enshittification should be expected.
