It’s not an easy conclusion for me. I feel like not playing into someones hand by not doing what makes you the most money is nice for a change. But is it ok to play into greedy media conglomerates hands by keeping their secrecy schemes intact and fuel the hype train that only exists to suck larger and larger amounts of money out of the customer?
