When this type of UI disappears from the internet, then you will know that the majority of consumers agree with your viewpoint. Until then, people keep buying those insurance upgrades, and not caring(if they cared, we wouldn't be in this situation).
If it all seems glib, that's because it is glib. People are taking advantage of other people, just below the threshold where those victims care enough to do something about it. This is the world we live in. I'm not sure how to end this on a positive note.

In a situation where you are legally compelled to buy insurance and essentially all providers do this that's completely wrong.
- module0000 10y agoHuh? What type of insurance are you talking about? I'm talking about airline flight insurance, like in the article.
