This reminds me of how like for 15 years I never had to pay for email And now ,all of a sudden ,Apple wants 9.99 a month For storage … Otherwise no access to email Hmmmm 😳

I had no idea! Since when did this become a thing?

i pay about that much for protonmail but considering all the security measures they implement, they don't even have the ability to read my emails content wherever the sender also supports pgp, as proton automatically uses this if possible, and signs all cleartext messages as well for authenticity protection. i don't consider personal, privacy protected messaging to be anything to do with WEF "you vill own nutting and be happy" subscription based everything. it's actually a valid service. and the same goes for privacy protecting, paid nostr relays.

anyway, not like it matters. if you don't pay for internet services, you are the product being sold to private information traders. it's not the same as subscribing to your house, car, computer, phone, the right to access YOUR money in a custodian's possesion, and other items that you physically possess, AT ALL. nobody gives things away for free without a hostile agenda. this is entirely separate from denying you the right of ownership of property.

I'll give you a deal. You can use my email address for $4.50/month! 😀

Switch to proton mail

I agree @Greeny . All the services were free and that was so we got attached to them , one so that they could then charge us in future but the great worry is that it was to data collect. I wish you a day filled with hope, light and kindness 💫

Anything for free you are the product that's definitely true but the lady in the vid actually bought the printer and still needed a sub 🤣 That's crazy, but foresee the same "saas" model being exported to cars soon

lol I don’t actually pay it every month Basically the last time I needed it was when I was trying to land my fiat job I don’t need an email unless I’m on the job hunt lol
