And since when should you have a "choice of products"?

Companies offer products, if you like them, use them.

I don't have a choice of free cars.

Nobody is talking about free - I’m happy to pay if I was given the choice.

You may not have the choice or free cars, but you have a choice of plenty of paid cars, including ones that don’t stalk you everywhere you go.

I don’t have a choice between a free Facebook and a paid Facebook that doesn’t stalk me. I have to either take the free Facebook and be stalked.... or not take the free Facebook and still get stalked by their like buttons everywhere.
