Default internet culture is "I am entitled to everything digital, in full, for free".

Which stems from the fact that most people have never created or contributed anything meaningful.

Except that most technology was built in a way that didn't require all of the humanity knowledge and labor to be sequestered and then regurgitated back as slop that we need to pay as a subscription from what essentially is a rent seeking mafia.
