This isn't unique to google but if the system continues to be designed to allow companies to mask the true cost of doing business we will never move ahead past it.
We undervalue ourselves repeatedly at the sake of cheap products.
I’m not sure what you mean by “true cost of business.” The biggest cost here is the issue of copyright claims and takedowns which were created by law in the first place, not by a natural phenomenon.
No matter what system we design, you’ll find that people adapt to take advantage of it. Well-meaning laws frequently have large and nasty unintended consequences. One of the biggest examples I can think of is the copyright system — originally intended to reward artists — which has led to big publishers monopolizing our culture.
