There is nothing wrong with using free services.
But when you use free services, you can't complain about the quality or expect any security or even basic privacy. The service is free and you sign away your rights as soon as you sign up for it.
There are some things where a free service is good enough. But when it comes to real business a company who relies on free services from 3rd parties (ie: not talking about in-house usage of open source products) is doomed to failure.
You get what you pay for .... when you pay nothing, expect nothing in return for your investment.
