    A lot of social media companies aren’t profitable, but they didn’t care because of cheap loans and lots of investors. Now that loans are more ecpensive and investors want AI, social media companies are realizing, “We need to make money, or investors will hate us”, and are locking things down. Twitter, Reddit, Youtube, and Tumblr are some of the examples we see. All trying to push subscriptions or block adblockers.
