    Normally I’m all about “yes they should be paid” but in this case it’s particularly ironic - modest ads used to be able to support newspapers. Now they need paywalls.

    Title of article: internet is worse

    QED.

      Oh wow, you thought that you counter 1 and 1 together while completely missing that this is a complex equation.

      Ads and ad revenue are not the same as they used to be, and the economics of the world and technology have changed. So until you understand the complexities of the world, please stop talking out of your ass and using shit like “QED” to sound smarter than you are.

        I think you missed their point. They pointed out the irony. Which is valid. They didn’t explore viability of monetization.

        And then you fall into that kind of toxic tone…
