Making everything rely on subscription (consider European TV license fees as such) and word-of-mouth is what you end up with. Except in the case of former, over-subscription is getting into a problem too.
- tcfhgj 2y agowhy does nobody think of micro payments?
- aniviacat 2y agoMicro payments would be the way to go, but the current payment systems do not enable this method of transaction. Removing ads would require being willing to make micro payments to some random shady news site you found on google to read their article. In the current payment world, that would require sharing a lot of private information in the case of PayPal or, even worse, sharing your CC number. The Digital Euro might fix this, if it turns out to be well implemented. Once a well implemented Digital Euro arrives, an internet without advertising would be a real possibility.
