That was literally the point I responded to.

That’s very different than the “selling your data” line that keeps getting repeated.

There’s a motte and bailey game that gets played every time this topic comes up. The argument starts with claims they’re selling your data, then when that’s revealed as a false claim the argument pivots to something else with strained arguments that it’s equally bad.
