    Just remember that every time you see this, someone has to go home and tell their family that they don’t have a job anymore. Or someone has to explain to their landlord why rent will be late. These aren’t just statistics, they’re people.

    And remember that every time this happens, it’s literally just to save more money for the “important people” and shareholders. And I guarantee we will see a price bump in Disney services before the end of the year for the exact same reason.

      They’ve already started cracking down on password sharing on Disney Plus.

      In the U.S., an Extra Member profile will cost an additional $6.99 per month for Disney+ Basic subscriptions and $9.99 per month for Disney+ Premium subscriptions. Currently, only one Extra Member slot is available per primary account; in addition, the Extra Member option is not available for Disney Bundle subscribers or for subscribers billed through third-party partners.

        I wish people would collectively just stop everything and shut it all down. Stop consuming, stop subscribing, stop willingly be fucked over. People complain, but don’t actually do anything about it. It’s pathetic.

          Yup. They will happily slurp up more of the corporate slop and ask for seconds.

          It is incredibly depressing how something as basic as an ad blocker isn’t understood or used by the bulk of humanity.
