When Big Tech says something is #free, it means that you're the product. 🤢
The internet should be a place of #freedom not a platform for data collection. 💃
Start taking your #privacy back by supporting open source alternatives to Big Tech! 💪

Why are Google and Facebook free? The answer might be worse than you think.
Google and Facebook are two prime examples in tech where the advertiser pays for the service. In return, these services are offered for "free" to the users.Tutanota

in reply to Tuta • • •If something is "free" on the Net, not only are you the product, you are the free labor as well.
Whether you are providing the content that allows Facebook to rake in billions in revenue without paying a nickel for that content or all the expertise that was provided on StackOverflow sold off to "AI."
Reddit the same. You are the free labor.
