> If it is free, then you are the product

I use Linux and it’s free. Am I the product?



Good point. But Linux is not a for-profit enterprise. Sex is free too. At least it is better when it is free.


For the buyer or the seller? The buyer has no incentive to make it good for the seller. The seller has every incentive to make it good for the buyer.

How much experience buying and selling it and getting it to free do you have to make that claim? Can you link to any peer reviewed studies?
