Same with the Economist. They must have crunched some numbers and determined this is more profitable.

I usually “unsubscribe” from these kind of services by changing my credit card to an empty prepaid one and let the payment bounce.

With the Economist you can at least do it via email, or if you’re doing digital only you can use a subscription via Apple’s in app purchases etc and manage it that way.

Yeah, luckily I subscribed through paypal, so I could block them through that.
