When porn companies treat models as employees, they pay them 300 dollars for a video that makes them 3 million dollars.
If i post a clip of a speech explaining how to program on youtube, and link to my paypal where you can buy the full video, shipped via mega, who should pay me as an employee? i think we can both agree nobody.
If somebody makes a website to make it easier such that you can do all 3 steps in one place, all of the sudden they should pay me as an employee?
