Gratis is good. Libre is good. The “if you dont pay you are the product” only makes sense for services with ongoing cost. I paid nothing for my Arch Linux and add negligible load on update servers which are mirrored by academic institutions worldwide. You cannot argue that my machine or me is now productized for Arch. Not everything needs a monetary price tag associated, however I do agree that everything has a cost, in a abstract economic sense.
