Brain drain.
So, what are you gonna do? Switch search engines? Most of the population don't even think there's a choice.
People tend to forgot the millions of years of horribly inefficient evolution it took to develop the human brain.
Microsoft is big enough that government would force them to pay up. There is just too much public pressure for that kind of disaster to get waved away.
Also, there are nuclear options that are far safer than water-based reactors. WCRs are literally the worst possible design for a nuclear reactor, and we were stupid enough to choose that over dry material reactors in the 60s.
Getting on one of those things before you're ready is almost as bad as suddenly stopping. My wife broke her arm after trying to show my son how it works, and I know co-workers with similar stories, including head injuries.
Immediately took the damn thing back. This is just the 2020s version of lawn darts.
Mastodon is working just fine.
HTTP headers can be faked. Easily.
There is also an incredibly huge saturation of authors, musicians, actors, artists, and other creatives that all expect to make it a career. It's far from realistic, and the stripping down of public domain through many decades of shady copyright extension laws have just been propping up this house of cards, at the expense of the public that deserves it.
For the past 20 years or so, especially with the Internet accelerating the process, people are starting to realize that these are not good career choices, and these industries will turn into mostly free hobbies, based on their passion to create.
Even now, I can throw a stick at some random artist on Bandcamp, and find great music for free who has barely any subscribers. Why spend $15 for a CD? Why spend money on royalties for using music on a video, when so many artists give it out copyright free?

Nebula is a gated community, and they don't let enough people in. It is far from the definition of "You" Tube.
