Except it isn't, and all those resources exist for free.

The Internet was once a niche space as a whole and now it is a large, omnipresent space with more niche spaces than before

It's really not complicated. This is just Boomer Humor for millennials.

Very nice, would you like a cookie? Now that your hangry has been settled, try clarifying your murky premise again.

Mine is that the ratio of websites that freely shared info vs those that did so with an underlying goal of making revenue by advertising was very large vs very small.

"Boomer humor for millennials"? I'm laughing, but not for the reason you'd hoped for.

This is still true.

The paid websites are simply more advertised.

No idea where you're going with the rest.
