FTFY

It's scarcity through unpredicted demand and lack of rapid scalability in the face of a popping AI bubble. Nothing greedy about having extra customers.

This is a usual behavior for cheap products that one must buy to get something to run at all.

This would be equally bad in any other economic system. Be right when blaming capitalism.
