Well, from the linked post it seems like you’re paying $12 and you’re still the product. (There is no mention of reduced ads, for example.)

(Though the truth has always been that you’re part customer, part product, of course.)

You are now paying and are still the product. This isn’t the clever gotcha you think it is.
