90s: The web? Let someone else fill the white space. 00s: Ad servers? Let programatic run ads. 10s: Web ads? Let Medium figure it out.

It's like the entire industry is Charlie Brown. We keep falling on our face, turning around & asking Lucy for more.

And each time we give more away. 1st: space on our pages. 2nd: control over the user experience. Now even our HOSTING.

What must the convo at ThinkProgress have been? "We can't figure out how to make money. Medium will figure it out!"

And don't act like that shit isn't something that could happen. It's EXACTLY what Twitter did with its APIs.

If we don't have the capacity to guarantee that we are operating ethically we have no capacity to show our readers that we are ethical.

The media industry: just keep running away from dealing with the business side. And don't look down super geniuses.
