And it's not like you can't still take pictures with film, I do that sometimes because it's fun!
But everybody realized it's not rational to have to keep spending money every single time they want to take a photograph, so they moved on to digital cameras.
Maybe this analogy helps.

Hey, quick question, when we moved from film cameras onto digital cameras was there some mass movement out there to make sure we all felt we need to keep enriching the Kodak corporation?
I didn't think there was. We all kind of saw that digital cameras are obviously better and just went with it.

Naming someone is not doxxing. They aren’t undercover. They aren’t intelligence agents overseas. This is outrageous - we are supposed to be a free Republic and these people want an authoritarian police state. Lawsuits should be filed & ranking Dems in Congress should act.

I love how they went from "Guns Don't Kill People" to "A Gun Can Kill People Even If You Don't Use It!"
Bessent: I'm sorry he is dead, but he did bring a semiautomatic weapon to what was supposed to be a peaceful protest.
Karl: There's no evidence that he brandished the gun whatsoever
Bessent: But he brought a gun!
Karl: We do have a second amendment in this country.
