The free on the web is not free either. We are receiving
the services in exchange for our time and attention, in exchange for the opportunity to be advertised to.

The paths that we are taking lead to confused customers at best; and monopolistic practices
at worst. A culture where consumers think that increasingly more and more services should be free is not healthy. -
Teens are growing up with not only a sense of expectation of free, but
sense of entitlement to free. Of course my social network is free! But why? The phone is not free, television is not free,
clothing, food, house - everything else is not free. Is this not a paradox?Just a few decades ago, people had low expectations and worked hard to make living. They did not know
free and never expected it. Now, the opposite trend is happening, with free becoming expected online. Will the new generation, the one that expects something for nothing, work as hard
to maintain the high standards of living that we created? - 1 more annotations...

monopolistic market plays, free is making a lot of people nervous. The libraries are free because
we pay taxes, but Microsoft Office is not free and probably should not be free.
