That is definitely true, but we need better payment models on the internet.

I nearly quit watching YouTube entirely because of ads. Brave is amazing.

Paid subscription models are almost as bad. It feels fucking awful to pay a subscription that I don't end up using much. Micropayments via Lightning are a cool idea, but they still interrupt what you're doing, and if zaps are any indication, it's easy to pay a bunch of seemingly small payments and then choke when you realize how much you're spending.

I want a way to pay for data in real time instead of paying an ISP once a month. That payment can get sent to the relays that pass along the data, in real time.

I want to set a rate I'm willing to pay, and deal with the service people are willing to give for that rate, and never think about it again.
