Re: Unsticking yourself from your security app

Some of the major AVs have been doing this for years. It appears everyone else is now taking advantage of trusting customers. Problem is there isn't enough backlash from consumers to change this rotten practice.

I agree, we the consumers should harras Companies via email, phone, mail and let the public know through forums like dslreports. Even though some people don't completely read the fine print when they purchase items on the internet. This is a low down dirty practise of gaining revenue from the un-knowing, un-educated user.

I myself have had to pull my credit card details for the same reason.
