That's an incredibly flawed analogy...

Why throw away a juice bag, that you bought and paid for with the agreed sum for the full amount, without drinking all the contents?

Were not talking employers draining your life for more time than you agreed to give them. If X amount of money for Y hours is what you agreed on, why do you feel entitled to not pay your part of the deal in full?

Yes of course you should be compensated based on ability and performance.

Who cares if it took you 6 hours or 8?

Anyone wanting to get the most out of the departement/team. If you only need 75% of your expected working hours to complete your assigned workload, its completely reasonable that they know so they can give you 25% more work to fill out the rest of your work day.

"They" in this case refers to media sites in general not limited to this specific one. And pretty much everone still track user behavior to do profiling on their paid users.

They're still tracking the crap out of you even if you pay, so they can fuck right off and die in the gutter.

Surveillance and advertising are pretty big drawbacks for most people

Offering the free tier is not the shitty method, using ads is also not the issue as such...it's the overloading it with incessant advertising and basically auditory harassment to coerse you in to buying premium that is the shitty method.

on Spotify there were more ars than songs lately, so they forced me to buy a subscription

Aah, so their tactic is working 100% as intended.

But they didn't force you to do anything. you willingly chose to reward them for their shitty method instead of ditching them because of it.

That has absolutely 0% to do with their nationality and 100% to do with with them being general cunts.

Are gun makers responsible when their products are misused to murder?

It's not really misuse, the intended purpose of a gun is to kill someone/something, that's literally what they are made for.

A used NUC blows a raspi out of the water performance-wise, and they use surprisingly little power when not under load. I run proxmox with a NAS, pihole and homeassistant on a NUC from 2015, and it draws around 9W.
