For months, Google has maintained that the web is “thriving,” AI isn’t tanking traffic, and its search engine is sending people to a wider variety of websites than ever. But in a court filing from last week, Google admitted that “the open web is already in rapid decline” (with regard to advertising, kinda-sorta)

You're speculating that an internet wouldn't have emerged without capitalism. Capitalism exists, therefore we can't know if that's true or not.

    Exactly, we can’t know if that’s true or not, but we do know it emerged in reality because of capitalism. That’s all we need to make a case for capitalism, since real-life examples always outweigh imaginary ones.
