When I was a teenager, there was a local chain of record stores over here named "free record store"

But guess what, you couldn't just walk in, grab some CDs and walk out without paying.

I was walking around downtown Toronto and saw some shop with large lettings on the outside saying "Pop Up Shop" advertising wild sales, etc. Turns out, the company is actually called Pop Up Shop. Very clever

It's a bad name there, too, but physical products are expected to have a cost; software frequently is FOSS and gratis, so there's more room for a reasonable person to think that maybe they actually are what they claim to be.
