Sounds like Google was providing you a bunch of valuable services for free for a long time. Not defending Google but your argument is not compelling.

- robocat 5y agoMore likely because of path dependency. Say you make a choice between equivalent services, A or B. Over time you are locked into your choice because you make decisions that fit your choice. The benefits and costs/risks of choosing A or B are often indistinguishable over time. Yet later, changing between the two can be unfeasibly expensive: e.g. changing banks (mortgage lock-in), changing health insurance (existing condition lock-in), changing careers, etcetera.
- IgorPartola 5y agoBut if both choices provided a free service of great value for years, is it fair to complain when A at some point wants money for the highly valuable service? I don’t see a lot of Fastmail customers having this issue.
