FYI many credit cards will allow you to make virtual numbers which you can then use for individual purchases or groups of purchases. They were originally meant to help combat fraud but I use them for subscription services so that if they give me a hard time about quitting I can simply cancel the card number and file a dispute (which in my few experiences has always gotten me my “overage” fees back)

Canceling NordVPN was a pain. It took numerous emails across numerous days for them to cancel and remove my credit card info. Lesson learned, I only pay with PayPal where I can revoke permission for recurring payments or pay with crypto. Went expressvpn to the cheaper nordvpn then to proton unlimited

Privacy.com is couch for creating new virtual cards you can control and cancel.

😱 a heavily advertised product turns out to be crappy in some way?! Colour me surprised

Meanwhile Amazon gets away with it???

They were trying. I couldn't believe the shit they had added to my plan. Even if I wanted that shit (I don't), how am I supposed to take advantage of it when I don't know to set up and configure it? Completely changed my opinion on Nord. I don't have a VPN currently. Any recs? I only need it for two things: very rarely when I want to torrent something (normally I just pay but there are certain exceptions when I've already paid for something but want no DRM shit, or bought a physical copy of and need digital) and because I'm not in favor of the current political regime and status quo. Not that I think I'm good enough to really hide myself from the govt, but I'd like to make it take more effort.
