They do. But does their ToS say that your data and attention is consideration for use of their services? I do not believe it does. In fact, it says:
> You have no obligation to provide any content to our services
Throughout their terms, I don't see anything that implies an obligation of exchange.
There are certainly other rights that exist... But contractual rights to a service is not a right you'd have without a valid contract.
You can sue your caterer if they run out of food, but not the soup kitchen.
