The real point to the statement is that if you aren't paying for it, then you aren't the customer. Being the customer and what that involves has different implications for different people and different companies and is a totally different discussion. Ducky said that he was the customer, I said that since he isn't paying he isn't the customer in Google's eyes. What Ducky's expectations as a customer are, I don't know and rather imagine are quite different than mine. Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar.

So I AM the customer, then, since I am paying for the services I get from Google, right? Does the fact that Google
does have paying customers that are not advertisers or big corporations change your argument at all? At least a little bit?
