Khan’s announcement of the now-vacated rule said that too many “businesses make people jump through endless hoops just to cancel a subscription. The FTC’s rule will end these tricks and traps, saving Americans time and money. Nobody should be stuck paying for a service they no longer want.”
Good thing representatives only have to tell their constituents why this is bad. No need to take it all the way to voters.
Sail the high seas people.
It is not only streaming. I used to have a barkbox subscription for my dog, monthly treats and toys. Well she is allergic to most of the treats, and hardly plays with the toys. I tried to cancel, and thought I did. But it changed me to a different option instead, so again the next month I went to cancel and it still did not cancel. Finally after the 3rd try I managed to cancel. It kept offering me “solutions” to not cancel.
I admit I should have checked for a confirmation email and made sure I was cancelled.
Prime does similar and keeps looking like you are cancelled, but you are not.
Sailing the high seas solves those problems too. Forego Amazon Prime and just steal your shit from their cargo ships.
