From its start, Gmail conditioned us to trade privacy for free services

If Gmail proved anything, it was that people would, for the most part, accept any terms of service. Or at least not care enough to read the fine-print closely.

                Nothing is free to operate? Like Protonmail is a very good service, what don’t you want to pay for what you use lol

                  those are two completely different things mate. One is paying for something and the other is getting blasted with ads. Either make it paid or make it free but dont make a free version that blasts me with ads. Thats lacking respect imo.

                  I got shut down big time when I recently suggested companies pay for open source projects with a tiny percentage of their revenue so customers who dont actually generate revenue with foss and provide valuable testing dont have to.
