For sure.
The last year of constant recession-expectation, and the tightening of lending/support for big tech is leading to a lot of circling of the short-term profitability wagons.
P.S - I have a subscription to WaPo that allows me to "gift" ten articles a month. I'm curious if the gift URL I used only allows one or a few people to access it, or if it opens the article up to everyone that uses the link.
Can a few people comment to tell me if that link bypassed the paywall to the article for them?
I could read it and it said I was gifted the article by a subscriber.
I was able to read the whole thing, so seems to be working! I also had the 'you were gifted this article by a Post subscriber' message at the bottom
In case it winds up paywalled for others: https://archive.md/qwwBa
Disappointing to hear of the success, but not entirely unsurprising. I imagine it's a matter of time before all the other streaming giants follow the same path
I also was able to access the full gifted article.
