Why would anyone "trust" a company to not raise prices or otherwise try to make more money?
Was Netflix, for example, expected to be $9.99/month for the rest of our entire lives? That is an insane thing to expect. Yet people always act like it's some great betrayal that, five years later, they need to pay another couple bucks for the same service.
- jimbob45 3y agoRaising prices is expected and literally every company does it, within reason. Increasing ad time, censoring shows, and forcing politics all thoroughly erode trust over time.
- WillPostForFood 3y agoThey are giving you a choice, price increase of $3 a month, or no price increase and ads. I don't see this as a trust violation. Maybe they should have raised prices for everyone, but given the ad option as an opt-out.
- digitalsushi 3y agoI don't want to collate raising prices with "otherwise". I will gladly keep tacking on a dollar here and there, with some internal debate, but I will not tolerate things with ads, even when they are free. Even when I am paid to watch them!
