[QUOTE="n1r0, post: 2491170, member: 99850"] You're missing the whole point of my long post. ze_cook has tried to explain it again above. And please read properly, 10k was not just fot YT, but their entire ecosystem, including (currently) free services like Sheets/Documents/Photo/Drive/Gmail/Maps... etc. [B]And more importantly:[/B] you seem to be under the delusion that non paying Google users are broke freeloaders taking advantage of Google's benevolent charity. You couldn't be more wrong. [COLOR=rgb(184, 49, 47)]Every single user is trading their personal info for GServices[/COLOR]. We ARE the product. You are ignorant of not only the value of privacy, but also what G can do with all that personal data. So please get off your high horse and reevaluate the situation. You claim you're too busy to use a "script" (which only takes seconds, and updates automatically) but you certainly seem to have a lot of time to defend G blindly. Why do you think FB/Insta/WhatsApp is free? Because it's profitable inspite of giving you a "free" service and sell your data to others. So now G wants our data AND wants us to pay them? We've become product^2 lol. A paywall implies you're always logged in, and they can profile you more accurately. And G did this policy change unilaterally. That's the whole point. Netflix one day decided it wanted more money and said no family sharing. [I]Those who forget history are doomed to repeat it.[/I] A poor auto driver asks more money than the meter shows and it is a punishable offence. A huge corp like Uber, Swiggy, Zomato etc introduce surge pricing and it is innovative, "[I]supply & demand bro...you don't understand economics[/I]" If the corps do it, it is not a crime, understood. Ninja edit: and why do you think Microsoft lets you use Windows without ever activating? And do you believe after buying a license, MS will stop collecting "telemetry" [/QUOTE]
