    Now they’ll just fire half of their customer support to make the call times as slow as calling the govt in order to cancel and throttle their cancellations page speeds to do the same.

    Not saying this doesn’t help, it will, but they’ll do anything they can to circumvent this.

        If only it worked for all the dnc and petition site spam I keep getting, despite having unsubscribed a hundred times.

          Yeah, I don’t remember donating, but maybe I did during 2020. I get emails all the time now and on my work email which is weird. (I don’t think I would have gave them that) I’ve moved them to spam, tried to opt out, and they keep coming.
