- criley2 4y agoVarious credit cards give you the ability to create per-store cards that can be shut-off or have shutoff dates. When I sign up for a trial now, I use a temporary card that is locked before the payment kicks in. My card actually has a nice browser extension that automatically gets or generates a per-store card when I hit a payment form. Very convenient.

I can protect myself from sketchy unsubscribe roadblocks, but the fact that you have to go out of your way to set up Privacy.com means the business practice will persist.
