Replacing “comment” with “artwork” kind of helps illustrate it. If we all made tons of artwork for Reddit, then they started gating it behind a paywall and while painters and all the behind-the-scenes painting staff earned nothing – well that’s kinda where we are today.

To be fair though, I’ve never heard of a modern phone battery swelling. That’s something that will happen years after it’s EOL, and at that point the company is no longer obligated to supply a replacement (as ideal as that would be).
