That's what "free as in puppy" stems from: the puppy is technically free, but there are a lot of other costs involved. It was originally coined, AFAIK, to suggest than even "free as in speech" free software can have a lot of other costs associated with it, but I think it applies to free services that get their revenue by showing you ads, aggregating and monetizing your data, or both.
