It’s no secret that we trade our information for access to the Internet. So what do you prefer a subscription based Internet with privacy protection or a free internet with companies allowed to take and sell your data

This could also refer to some ISPs that give free internet or cheap internet paid by ads, if such a thing exists already(if not it will be a thing in a few years)
That was tried in the early hours 2000s but almost nobody used it.
Net Zero? I definitely used it for a while.
It was dial-up. Most computers don’t have phone modems built in anymore, cell phones definitely don’t and it would be so slow as to be virtually useless with modern APIs. Broadband needs a hardware setup which nobody can or will do for free. Sure there’s wifi which some cities offer but those will be restricted and are only “free” as covered by local government taxes or local businesses. The days where the model of free internet access in exchange for selling your data is gone. Clearly to me the poster above is referring to social media selling your privacy which goes back to my point that social media is not the Internet.
