even if you are paying for it, it's quite possible that they also have other revenue sources that conflict with your interests.
- goodrubyist 5y agoExactly, this heuristic doesn't work all (or even most?) of the times. A more accurate approach is to rely on the terms you agree to when you buy/use software (if you don't want to read them, then you can depend on faulty shortcuts instead).
