    It was just a matter of time for everyone to follow suit. Unfortunately, capitalism demands endless growth and thus eventually enshittification of products. They’re not happy with just tons of money. They want all the money.

    Expect to see adless tiers constantly rising in price every year. This will push users to piracy again as we come full circle to terrible cable fees.

        How is password cracking a feature of competition? I am not trying to dismantle your argument but I am struggling to see how your argument works in this case.

        Right. And piracy is legitimate competition that enshitification drives users to.

        Just following that free market, right?

            Go for it, bud.

            Explain it so my inferior intellect can understand.

            How do free market economics completely circumvent digital piracy?

            I am all ears.
