I’m not dodging your initial point. Companies compensate you for the data and advertising with free access to the website. The money they earn this way is used to pay for the service they’re providing.
That’s why them paying you a subscription for the data isn’t a thing. You’ve already agreed to the trade.
How about companies have to pay a monthly subscription fee for our data.
A funny comment implying the companies are making unfairly high profits off of their users’ data. Your reply:
They do if you’re using their service without paying for it.
You strike me as someone who understands that it’s impossible to use such services without paying with data. So an appropriate response would be “No, they don’t”. Agreed?

Great, we agree that these companies aren’t profiting off of monthly subscriptions but data collection instead. Allow me to rewind:

I feel like you’re failing to grasp the core concept here.
As long as you ignore my simple yes or no question made in good faith I’m not interested in your concepts.
