Now you are a product using a product

And that's why I dislike that popular saying. People don't stop being products by paying for services. You're always a product when using big tech. Only small businesses, nonprofit organizations and community services allow us not to be products, whether we pay or not for it.

"If it's January, it's cold" doesn't imply it can't be cold in other months.

There are many cases where we don't pay and we're not products. The phrase is false in any way.
