It seems to me that the price for using the Internet in most cases is fair. Yes, many people use the Internet only for entertainment, meaningless communication, videos on youtube, etc. But many of us use the Internet for need. There are a huge amount of information on the Internet. Most of this information is garbage. But 1% of this information is useful.  And there are many people who study useful information, develop, get some skills, then to use it all in real life.
Therefore it is not expensive. After all, before it was necessary to pay a lot of money for a university or some courses, but now information can be found for free. And we are not talking about the use of the Internet for work, for any financial transactions, etc.
