Ah, the old paywall with extra steps. So let’s take that further… In the future google has devolved even more than it has now. So it’s just basically a misinformational mess riddled with ads. I guess to have access to reliable and non-predatory links/info you gotta now have the money for it. How much money will of course increase as any company gets established of course further pushing lower income people out.

And don’t even pretend this is far stretched. People struggling to get by get boned by shit like this all the time.

It’s too abusable. I don’t like it at all. I also don’t like the idea of the government having full control of the internet/information either. I don’t know what the solution is but locking information behind money, even if it’s in a roundabout way, is not a good solution.

I will personally always be against any paywalls on information but to each their own I guess.

You’re not gonna get the answer you expect asking this question here lol
