The Internet is probably the most ambitious infrastructure project ever conceived. Of course it's not free the way sunlight is free.
I dream of a world in which things like YouTube outright do not exist because everyone has the know-how to run their own servers, connected by mesh network. Maybe then we'd actually support the people who make things we enjoy instead of giving like 30% to whatever platform they happen to be advertising on.
Of course this discussion sidesteps all the various atrocities of late capitalism.
