the six year old, watching basketball: "is this live?"

"yes"

"aw, I was hoping it wasn't so we can skip the commercials"

something interesting about raising kids whose main experience of TV is streaming is that they have absolutely no patience for ads

Humans adapt very quickly to comfort, safety, and convenience.

I'm convinced that any human who could time travel from before, say, 1900 AD to today would, inside of two weeks, be a Starbucks-ordering YouTube-addicted meme lord.

I think class divide surely exists, but from my experience, it's really about whether people are bothered by it. For me i based my living on ad-free mindset so i set my priorities on getting rid of ads and focus a bit more on privacy. My siblings and friends on the other hand, don't mind any of those, so they continue using reddit/facebook and youtube(with ads), all with pay grade higher than me.
