Considering how the big corporations are "cracking down" on pretty much anything they want is a clear indication that the shift already happened, the internet is no longer a "free space"
Today the internet is mostly owned by big corporations or billionaires more directly, and they subject no only it but the whole world to their whishes.
The capitalist world is a piece of shit, the good things happen despite capitalism, then capitalism comes along and sabotages and ruins everything to sell you something worse.
Everyday that phrase seems more real " you will own nothing" because you won't be allowed to own anything, just take a look at the streaming platforms, or any other platform , they remove , they revoke , they block, they delete, they control what you can and can't do and you can't do anything about it.
We need a bright web.
Personally I can't see it, what have they taken away from me?
I own way more now than I did 20yrs ago when the web was still a bright young thing.
Anything you purchase that is attached to a service and you don't have any physical copies, you don't actually own.
Which is pretty easy to avoid, honestly. All my music, movies, and games are on external hard drives they can't access. Same with all of my editing software.
That needs to be the default for digital again.
