Assuming that is not a rhetorical question, or answering for posterity, it was primarily by accepting the word "free" in their promises of free services at face value. > How do we get out of here? Don't know. It was / is a tradeoff. For some of us, and with appropriate protective measures, maybe it has been and still is a reasonable tradeoff. Investigations started in the US congress (and, iirc, in the EC counterparts) may lead to de-monopolizing some of those services. I'm not sure that will help all that much, or to say it another way, when that happens, those companies will find more ways to try to achieve large profits (which, generally, are at our expense). I wouldn't mind seeing some discussion of appropriate ideas.
