> the only goal of a corporation is to maximize profits
Not sure what the economic model has to do with a company's morals. There are companies like Valve, AppWrite, Supabase and there are companies like Google, Apple and Facebook. Their ideologies are different, all of them maximize profits, nothing wrong in that but some of them choose not to exploit human psychology. This is more of a cultural and moral issue than an economic one imho.

At the end of the day, you have to choose what you wanna share. It's better to stay informed, nothing to lose.
> FOSS in itself doesn't guarantee anything
FOSS guarantees the way my data is handled and collected. Windows has backdoors, we all know it but we can't point them out specifically because it's not FOSS, there's 0 transparency, 0 care for user choice and I honestly do not like to live in a dystopia where spyware is the norm, which is why I support FOSS. It's the only true measure of maximum transparency.
