Why do people still bother with meta and others? In my community (outside USA), we use local websites and posted bills. There's no magic to it. >Network effects If people decide the cost/effort is too high, that will dissipate. >"Somebody else will" This amounts to a thought-terminating cliche at this point. You are responsible for your own choices, not what others do. It's the worst cop out, you are claiming no agency. *royal "you" where applicable. I find a lot of responses to these stories fiendish. It is not "privileged" to refuse a bad deal. If anything, it is "privileged" to say one has no choice. Sorry if this comes off as rantish... I find a lot of the conversation around big conglomerates tedious and usually just laden with overtly bad-faith arguments and lazy defeatism. Conversely, love or hate Woolf, surely there is enough respect for simple arts people should find these behaviors abhorrent.
