I appreciate the input. to be sure, in no way was my post a lament on not 'earning' enough or anything like that. i am aware that has probably come up before, but im not sure where Darth got that from in my post. i definitely agree with him there.
If zappers are able to reliably make back their zaps (or even a profit), it stands to reason that this would also cloud (or potentially ruin) the signal provided by zaps.
yes, this is similar to what I was getting at. undisciplined (#1056806).
So lots of weird middlemen (ads, selling user data, tracking) have crept in to online interactions and this has made so many interactions gross and unpleasant.
this to me is a type of financialization, albeit more parasitic and exploitative, definitely not p2p, but still financializing. maybe over-monetization is a better term, or even over-faciltated ... im not sure.

You've inspired me to write up some longer thoughts about how to address these issues. There's a principle of experimental economics called "saliency" that can help us out.
