Default internet culture is "I am entitled to everything digital, in full, for free".

Which stems from the fact that most people have never created or contributed anything meaningful.

The internet has become a privacy and rent seeking hell hole.

It used to be a lot different.

Look at companies trying to build more things that pull value into their private cloud offerings.

The only one pretending this is something that needs to be said, for whatever reason, is you.

Except that most technology was built in a way that didn't require all of the humanity knowledge and labor to be sequestered and then regurgitated back as slop that we need to pay as a subscription from what essentially is a rent seeking mafia.
