I will absolutely employ a 0 tolerance policy on forced ads.

If I have paid for a service to be ad free and you throw me an ad, I won't pay for your service.

Hell, I'll back-charge through my creditor and say I paid for a service that was not delivered.

Careful of backcharging large companies. They'll remove your account from all their services. Looking at you Google.

They don't delete anything, though. They just deny YOU access to it.

Not your computer, not your data. The cloud is just a buzzword for someone else's computer. Always run local backups.
