I'm pretty sure they get more money from people freely giving them data using a lot of their services (maps, search) than they'd get if they gatekept searching with a, subscription that people opted out of.

You're 100% right. Last I heard, Google makes about $300 per person every year from the data it collects on us.

… But I honestly think it's just a matter of time before the capitalist cook the golden goose and try to grab subscription bucks anyways.
