When this announcement was made, I canceled prime. I don't even use Prime video. It's the principle.
Piracy is the only option that won't end this way. 🏴☠️
I did use it, and the music service. They destroyed both in less than a year, so I cancelled it the same day they announced ads in video. They already had an ad tier, called FreeVee and it was insufferable.
As a bonus, I now don't buy anything off Amazon, since I no longer get the delivery benefits. Fuck that company.
At least 20% of my orders end up being fucked up anyway. It's either counterfeit products an entirely wrong product with the UPC of what I ordered taped onto the box.
I ordered a Spyder Color calibrator last year (about 200 bucks), and got an iPhone 4 screen protector with the barcide of a Spyder printed on the box.
I ordered a laptop and it arrived gutted.
Amazon died for me when they changed from a retailer to a drop-shipper.
Don’t stop there. Don’t shop there anymore.
It’s harder to find certain things, but sleep is easier knowing you’re doing what you can by not contributing.
