I didn't mean to offend you if you are a content creator or want some content creator to be funded. I just don't think it's much of a technology issue. It's a signal that the content isn't worth the money where wall

What if we don't pay them at all? I don't think we'd miss out on too much. It might even make things better, getting rid of professons like 'youtuber' and article writers who'se main goal is to distribute ads w

Software is easy to copy and replace. There's little, if any, monopolization of software technology resources. Software doesn't require huge investment/over-head like oil industry. I don't think FB/Google/etc.

I think, people doesn't necessarily hate the product, they hate the business model. However, I don't have any realistic replacement business model to offer.

That is probably right for the people who chooses to play video game all day and withdraw in general, but for working people, the risk/required-investment maybe too high. I've also heard that employers do not like self-taught deve

I'm a complete layman, but I've heard an economist say something different about real wage rising. Doing some searches, I think making that conclusion might also be misleading. Here's some of the stuff I found out: - There w
