If you don't pay for your product, you are the product
Wrong. You are the product anyway, believing the majority of companies would not monetarize you because they made you pay first is very naive.
Nah, there are good open source projects that are free because people think it's important for them to be. Many of us probably also contributed to some, helping good things to be free.
