For what alternative? Paying money to each website to access it?
- wolvoleo 2mo agoI'd be happy with a lot of the current websites to disappear. There's way too much crap around anyway. And the ones that are worth it, yeah I'd pay for them. If they are ethical and worth it (I won't pay for anything from Google of course). Besides, I don't really care what the replacement business model is. I just don't want this one.
- mbirth 2mo agoYou know, there was a time when people actually paid to have their content hosted online. You read that right. Instead of trying to make money with a website, people PAID money to have a website.
- majorchord 2mo agoYou mean the time when websites did not have to deal with the bandwidth and infrastructure to handle millions of users and bots?
