While it is no secret that exploitative practices are interlaced with capitalistic tendencies, the practices are becoming intolerable. Signing up to pay usually takes only two clicks that are prominently visible whereas cancelation options are hidden away in deep settings requiring multiple clicks. Pricing often feel arbitrary with no reference points. Every large company grows with the intention of exhibiting monopolistic behavior. This is not sustainable and should not be tolerated.

      You can’t cancel T-Mobile on their site, they require you to call. Even then I got no email verification nor letter about the cancellation. Cool…

      one time i had to call a company during regular 9-5 business hours to cancel a subscription after starting a free trial.

      that experience was so horrible ive since sworn off free trials altogether. nowadays, if i need a free trial to use an app or website for a couple days, then i will simply not use that app or website.
