The kind of rights given to certain people who provide free products/services on the internet

[Ucy]

I noticed how easily people who offer "free" products/services can abuse this privilege. I call it privilege because most people who use the products/services are not aware they are free... In my case, I was aware but was "forced" to accept their offers, inform of pop-ups, to use a popular social media for free. The offers occasionally appeared on the screen of my phone with no way of regecting the offers... better still, there was no button to click on to reject the offers and avoid giving them your consent to use your private information and get the information exposed to dangerous people (or things) intentionally/unintentionally.
I pay for my internet services. So, I don't fully understand why they took over my phone screen and got me to click offers (I never requested for) that get you to use the social media for free?

It's Important to get the consent of people before offering them free products/services.  You don't force it on them. I never had any problems paying for my internet services with money I worked for, and i don't request for free things from people I don't know really well or outside of my family.

It is normal if you are clicking baits in internet , for me that's a bug and you cannot even take them off .

This is the reason why I love using Apple Mobile because this kind of pop ups not usually happening but in Android? there are tons of similar issue coming .

There's always a TOS before you sign in to a website.

And if you're not paying anything on that website as you use them on your purpose, you and us are their products. That's the logic in the websites/services that are offering free things to their users.
