And I personally don't use gmail, block all ads on YT, etc. I avoid all these when practical and possible, rather than throwing my arms up in the air. Doesn't mean I never use their services, but I do my best not to.
Oh I do agree and I wish more people did like you do, which is my point: instead of discussing what billionaire ego island gets richer, let's just not use their tools and discuss together what we want as a society. If the cost of AI is higher than its benefits, then let's not use it. From any company.
