Why am I not surprised?

Because you’re old enough to remember the thousands of other times corporate entities have screwed us plebs?

Yes, that describs it accurately.

Corps screwing over its users should not be news anymore but a norm.

It is, which is a sign we all need to start being more vocal we aren’t accepting it anymore. By reading a book or going outside.

I truly appreciate this idea. However, consumerism fucked society and people are preferring to live for their belongings rather the other way around.

Also, an average person will not give up comfort and step outside their bubbles.

Sad.
