The reason I'll never pay Google a subscription fee is because they still spy on you and make money off your data even if you pay them.

The deal is supposed to be either:

  • I get your service for free, you spy on me and sell ads to cover the cost of the service

OR

  • I pay for your service, you will NOT show me ads or sell my data

Any service that doesn't fall into one of those two categories can GTFO.
