That's the point. The bullies let you free if you cough up your lunch money on the way to the only cafeteria around.

No such thing as a free lunch. Nobody is forcing you to use their service either.

you know that content (specially well made content on youtube) is not free right? content creators spend money to create stuff for you to see.

so now, they need to recoup the money, or even better, earn a living through content they create. that's done either by ads, youtube premium or stuff like patreon.

would prefer that your favorite content creators stopped doing stuff you like because they can't earn a single cent on stuff they do?
