If you pay them, you don't cease being the product, you actually become an even better product. Now they know you have more than enough disposable income to pay them not to annoy you with advertising and tracking noise. That's actually the exact sort of person whose attention advertisers want. People with surpluss money and the willingness to spend it on stuff they don't actually need.

The answer to advertisers and suveillance capitalists is technological blocking of their monetization attempts while simultaneously leeching their "free" services. You want the value they extract from you to be zero or negative. It should cost them money until they cease and desist.
