This is poorly chosen language as it doesn't distinguish between freedom versus monetization.
I think most users of free software know it's 'free as in freedom' and they are not being duped.
I think most users of free services are duped into thinking it is actually free and are unaware their data is being sold and monetized and are paying for the service with their data. Lately more people are waking up to that fact though. I don't mean services like MDN, just things like Facebook, Google etc
