It's pointless to subscribu for ad-free because they're liars. They're still going to scrape your data, use it for whatever they want, and get away with it.

On a much more serious note, you know they're still taking money to boost things in search results and similar things that aren't strictly "ads" but still have some form of money to get things closer to your eyes. TikTok does this. It pays people to create things related to specific topics (or rather, people/brands pay through TikTok).
