I mean... Okay. But they're still begging us for money. YouTube and Google are asking us for subscriptions to many of their services, like YouTube premium, Google One Drive, etc. So yes, I do consider myself a customer no matter the percentage of their revenue I make up.

they are less concerned about your experience as an end-user than they are about acquiring your data

I guess this is my issue, as a customer, with them. I'm not willing to pay for garbage customer support and customer relations.
