In the future you’ll pay $900/mo to stare at a blank page.

And you’ll have to because all the free sites are entirely ads.

You joke but like, they are already pushing a twitch style sub model pretty hard already with the youtube "private sub" system that creators can do, it grants you access to videos that the creator marked as a subscription only, which is basically the same thing, as it shows you the video, and a tiny "sub only" label, and when you try to open it it brings you to the sub page.

I forsee in the future youtube moving to a fully monetary model with only brand issued content being "free" and everything else requiring youtube premium

Just try it and see how your new cyborg hand DRM prevents unauthorized body modifications.

Also, scientists are already at work finding ways to inject advertisements directly into your brain.

An amateur! Just suck in some air with your ass and do a reverse fart. Use the pressure to pop out your eyeballs from the inside, like a pro.
