Why should cloud storage be free? Servers cost money to run 24/7. Networks to connect them to all your devices so you can access everything, all the time, from anywhere, costs money.
You could store your data on your own hard drive for free if you want. And encrypt it. No one is forcing you to use iCloud.

You could manually copy your photos from your phone to a computer with a cable and back them up. You can back up your whole iPhone to a local computer too I think.
If you aren’t happy with the controls iPhones give you then you can get an Android. That’s one of Androids main selling points over iPhones.
