on windows and mac they just get a prompt and a lot of people don't read it, care, nor wonder what it's actually doing they just want it to work.

I know you all know this but companies will do this knowing that exploiting all of us.

I use Linux and agreed on all those points. when I used adobe before it wanted to charge me a fee to cancel my subscription and wouldn't let me just 'cancel' in their system so I just blocked the payments on my card and dipped out.

good software, garbage company

Heh, I had a similar situation once, but my bank wouldn't let me block the transactions.

So I switched banks. It was a interesting call with my previous banks support folks.

On linux they just use sudo and similary don't read, care or wonder.
