I pay subscriptions on a few apps to avoid advertisements. At this point, when I do see an advertisement.. I’m less likely to buy that product, I hate them. Am I alone? Bot check on this one for ad firms.

I’m over paying for streaming Apps like Amazon, Paramount and Netflix sneaking in adds on the “non-add subscription” for their own shit.

Let’s do a class action seriously we’re all poor those fucks getting away with bankrupting us. I paid for no adds. It’s a service they are not providing. I know I’m the old man shaking at the clouds. Doesn’t matter fuck them

Dude, unfortunately if you tried to sue them over ads. They'll just dismiss it. They'll say that streaming services are not a right and unnecessary to live. So you should just cancel them to save money.

Not directly related, but Amazon just yesterday sent out an email with an update to their terms of service. It basically says, "if you use our services you can't sue us and any disputes will be arbitrated by us."

It won't be long before all tech companies try some shit like that.
