It was a convenient counterexample to the point being made.

Well no, it wasn't. The original point is that is Google's business model. Not that this business model is inevitable in every case.

Someone worked to make that app, either you pay for it with money or you pay for it with privacy, your choice.

It goes without saying that Google made it. If you somehow didn't know that, it was all over the thread.

You're making the assumption here if anyone. "that app" does not mean "all apps, period"
