What is with Facebook and Microsoft ?
I recently installed Facebook messenger on android and it literally had ads in the chat list itself. Yuck.
Same for Microsoft. At least I don't have to use any ms product but everything has ads now ?? Why ?

We had three people working to get cancellation done. Customer service / billing / tickets / emails and more. It was ridiculous. The only person who could cancel was a salesperson we’d never worked with who would NOT respond to calls and emails. And we pay this vendor 75,000+!
Every time windows pro jams “search suggestions” and other crap in via notifications and elsewhere I just roll my eyes
I need to use an Amazon application to read Transparency codes on certain products I sell. Amazon recently added ads that appear with the codes ... which cause the codes themselves to be almost impossible to select to copy to my computer.
Anyone (?) can leave with a small number of 'unimportant' clients to leave. And true, they tweak the level of annoyance to hit a balance.
Remember the rule that one should fire the clients that are not profitable enough (and 'profitable' is a subjective term).
if you're willing to pay, the chatGPT app is going to be a better experience. the only reason to use the copilot app is to get gpt4 for free. and that means ads.
This is probably not true, or why would people so often enjoy spending money?
I think people do like (and now expect, thanks to decades of the "spyware" business model) getting free things. Combined with low levels of tech literacy and extremely low levels of trust in fair pricing of goods & services, and a typical person isn't likely to think there's any price that they ever should pay for software.
@downvoters: seriously? you're donvoting someone for stating the bleeding obvious?
That's the hard truth and please don't pretend you didn't already know this fact before rating about it.
Please, enlightne me with your arguments then.
Most likely when Copilot addoption gets big enough, ad free paid tiers will also pop up for those users who find it valuable, but until then it's easier to get mass adoption of a service by only having a free tier as paying money upfront for a yet unfamilar service puts off most users. That's what you don't understand.
