notice the lack of the word 'free'
Google Docs is free because they use your data for advertising and AI training.
You can use it for free ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Specify that, "free" means two things in English, otherwise use "libre", which means freedom in Spanish and it's sometimes used to refer to free or libre software.
You're both as bad as each other
Most "free" things aren't free, you pay by them collecting your information and selling it. Anyone that automatically thinks something is bad because it isn't free is dumb as fuck.
What the hell does this even mean?
