I don’t know why people keep saying this. You either pay for a service, or you get a company extracting as much data as they can from you for advertiser or VC money. Servers and bandwidth cost money

1. Some people pay for Discord and they still exploit their data.
2. Some people pay for Lichess and their whole website is free of charge without tracking/advertising.

Yes, things cost money. Yes, ideally those who can pay for it should. No, something being free doesn’t legitimize unethical means to make a profit.
