Does the UK not teach media literacy? I went to public school in Texas and we were given lessons on basic media literacy every few years at a minimum, though I don't think it was in-depth enough.
The first thing that comes to mind is credit card point redemptions. Right now, the best information on getting stuff like free first class flights are on communities like FlyerTalk. If that info was super accessible, those opportunities wouldn't be available in the first place, and travel companies would be far less generous with rewards programs.
If Reddit were run by competent people, I'd think that paywalled subs might be a good idea. I imagine that there are countless scenarios where people have really useful info to share, but at the same time, said info can't be spread too widely, and a paywall is one way of making sure that only people who truly care about said info can take advantage of it.
Then you should also not like how Google has a history of making their sites, which are market leaders in many cases including search, perform worse on browsers other than Chrome. That is considered anti-competitive behavior.
I imagine that, if regulators go hard enough, it'll make sweeping changes company-wide. Google does a lot of anti-competitive behaviors that don't involve money and are very sneaky, and as a result, we might see a lot of features be changed in the long term.
I asked my question because the NYT headline that I personally saw didn’t say "Trump agrees," and I wanted to verify whether that was the actual headline or an interpretation of it.
Legroom is probably the most expensive thing to give on a plane, so if you want legroom, pay for the privilege and fly business class. Otherwise, at least try to enjoy the few concessions you get from the airline
I think it's a cool idea with awful implementations. Rather than turning the idea into a solution for something existing, everyone and their mother decided to create a fake problem instead.
Partially owned gives room for the product to stay alive. It being fully owned by Google makes it subject to being killed.
