So true. This is the biggest legal grift out there. Especially annual subscriptions where they renew (charge your card) in advance of the renewal date. A certain domain name registrar I use does this and it’s annoying as hell, because they don’t notify you in advance, claiming that you agreed to it at the initial signup.
Normies hate subscriptions. Companies continually downsize value, increase prices, and push lock-in with subscriptions. The disparity between value and price gets totally messed up, creating really inefficient markets.
Paying for what you want when you need it and getting it no-strings-attached via instant internet money is the future. And we can do it today.
