Except the value proposition still needs to make sense, so resigning to just pay the ~~creator~~ license holder exorbitant rates for ever-more-enshittified services is learning the wrong lesson.

They have used their control over the system to grotesquely distort copyright from its original intent of getting more cultural works into the public domain for people to use and build on, to instead lock everything away for lifetimes. Don't buy into their lies and propaganda that they have any moral high ground.
