Free to play depends on what the operating model actually is I'd say. Some pay to win mobile game is worse than free with paid cosmetics, which in turn is worse than something like freeciv.
Freeciv is not free-to-play, it's Free Software.
Which means that playing it is also free, no?
Free-to-play refers to a specific type of game distribution model where the game itself is free, but it includes microtransactions, an optional subscription, or both.
Free Software is software that is given freely to the world in its entirety, source code included. It's different because of the complete lack of profit motive, in most cases.
Not always, here are some paid open source games on itch.io
Although not all of them are free as in libre, developers are encouraged to charge for free software.
Free to play is an implication that something else costs money. If it's all free it's just a free game.
What is the use after one?
"Use-after-free" refers to a security vulnerability that occurs when a program continues to use a pointer to a memory location after that memory has been freed (deallocated).
From Google's AI based on Frauenhofer Article,
An important detail that is missing here is how deallocation works.
When an application tells the system that it no longer needs a chunk of memory, the system does not erase the data from that region. It instead allows other applications to take control of that chunk.
Imagine it like renting a room, but you keep a copy of the key before checking out. You have supposedly left the room, but you still have access to it.
In the software world, this is unintentional behavior. In the real world, it would look like you accidentally return to that room.
Or, like you checkout, but your friend still has a key. Without knowing that you checked out, they return to take a bath. If a 3rd person knows about this miscommunication, they can rent that room, and steal your friend's money during the bath.
Use after free is a form of programming vulnerability.
