You have a grossly misinterpreted understanding of my comment. We pay for things like data because it just being free would never work.

Just like youtube or spotify being free has never really worked. I'm saying we should start paying for services like those the same way we pay for our data plans.

Which part of my comment made you think I was suggesting our data plans should somehow pay for our web services? That would be fucking stupid.
