We have just evolved a type of racket to over charge people but this massively inefficient racket will hopefully die soon.
At this point it is really just a type of business tax and anti-progress. Paying 13k for a geocities site is increasing the probability the business fails.
I just can't imagine anyone paying that by 2030. Midjourney can already do the most amazing design work but it is stuck at the conceptual level. It won't be stuck at that stage for ever.
