"Information wants to be monetized." | ||

that definition of free was always about liberty, not cost! serving information costs money. requesters aren't entitled to the bandwidth costs! the centralized walled gardens we have today are a direct result of people confusing "free" to mean "no cost" instead of "I can do whatever I want with it" | ||
