Why does nobody talk about how much money 'free' AI photo editing apps really cost you

I used one of those free AI photo enhancer apps last month to fix up some old family pictures. Seemed harmless enough, just upload and let the AI work. But after like 20 photos, it locked me out and demanded $15 a month to continue. I paid it because I was already invested, you know? Then I checked my bank statement a couple weeks later and realized they had signed me up for a yearly plan at $180 without me noticing. Total waste, the results weren't even that good. Anyone else get burned by hidden fees in these AI tools?

Oh man that sucks. These "free" apps always get you with the fine print.

Bet they're making way more off selling your data to advertisers than they ever could from subscriptions.
