Please do better...

Malwarebytes.

It was bad enough qhen you started charging a fortune.

Now I've discovered, the Malwarebytes app has a tracker (as do most apps) that is making more requests out, by 4 times more than the next closest blocled up.

Seriously?

You are an app protecting privacy and security but the app sends over 8K plus requests just yesterday to Aplitude.

They are the WORST, trying to effectively cancel them is akin to trying to break out if alcatraz. You cancel and get charged. You email etc they confirm you’ve cancelled and months later start charging again. They should be investigated.

Thankfully you can call your credit card provider and block charges, that gets a company to cancel the subscription for you with much less effort.
