Typically when a service is free you are the product. This is a good example.

Yeah, there's a push to no ownership or everything as a service with user data collection and ads. A more than good reason to use and support FOSS and non-profits. We're starting to see governments adopting Linux so that's good, corporations will follow and maybe just maybe there will be a proper pushback on that trend.
