I apologize for being oblique and kind of snarky. My point was that it's interesting how we can frame a service business "extracting fees" to imply wrongdoing.

My point was that it's interesting how we can frame a service business "extracting fees" to imply wrongdoing. When it's pretty normal for all services to charge ongoing fees for ongoing delivery.
- ClumsyPilot 3y agoIt’s about the money, it’s about perverse incentives and propensity of service businesses to get away with unfair practices. We have decent laws about your rights as a consumer when you buy stuff, but like no regulation of services
- brookst 3y agoThere is tons of regulation of services? Everything from fraud / false advertising to disclosure of fees to length and terms of contracts. What regulation do you think is missing? And as someone who presumably provides services for a living, what additional regulations would you like to be subject to?
