Nor the world or the internet is this black and white. And heartbleed begs to differ.

I'm not suggesting anything is black and white. No idea why you brought up heartbleed. You're free to choose to use free services, open source software, public resources etc. or not. That's not black and white, it's a bunch of choices you can make about resources without requiring money.
