    If you’re using a non-FOSS software that is free, it is gathering your data and profiting off of you. Period.

    Plenty of FOSS gathers your data too.

      the whole point of FOSS is that you can literally see the code and decide if you’re ok with what it does, and even change it and recompile if you want.
