See, hailing proprietary, big tech companies doesn’t bring you anything in return (except that monthly subscription bill).

Remember the time when adobe stopped their services in Venezuela? They recently continued their service on that country, but they left a question. Are you free to consume services you paid for? Can this happen again and irreversibly? Well yes. See how politics gets in the software business? It’s going to get worst. Describing the cause will result in this post turning in to a political article, so I’m not going to describe.
