It's hard to not see this as unintentional by big tech because now these same media outlets are completely subservient to their platforms. Very few media outlets can be the New York Times most are confined to Youtube, Facebook, Instagram, Spotify, Apple Music.

It most be nice to have a 40-50% blood extraction machine when these same media companies would have owned their advertising networks if this were 30 years ago.

I can't think of a single company that wouldn't want a 40% boost in revenue.
