Great article. I highly recommend Corey Doctorow’s book called ‘Enshittification’ for more on this phenomenon

This is a law issue.
If you read the book, the post will make much more sense

private ownership caused the issue? so ypu dont see this happening if tje government was in charge of everything?
It’s also total bullshit how they can just film in a public street and include anyone that happens to pass by in their movie without paying them, but as soon as a famous person’s face gets shown they demand royalties.
