I strongly recommend everybody to read "The Age Of Access: The New Culture of Hypercapitalism, Where All of Life is a Paid-For Experience" written by Jeremy Rifkin in the year 2000 (!) when his theory was looking like a sci-fi plot or an ante litteram Black Mirror episode.

«The door refused to open. It said, “Five cents, please.” He searched his pockets. No more coins; nothing. “I’ll pay you tomorrow,” he told the door. Again he tried the knob. Again it remained locked tight.»
