I refuse to pay a subscription for anything. I also won’t use my real phone to scan codes or verify identity or age. If I encounter those demands for my information, I go find better things to do with my time. I once participated in a product survey for $3,000 hearing aids. In addition to paying for the hardware, for a monthly fee, you have access to their app which was actually amazing at filtering out background noise. The questions were, would you pay for the subscription, how much, low long . . . My answers were no, zero, never. Otherwise, you are paying for purposely crippled hardware. I doubt my opinion swayed them but they will never have me as a customer. What if you cancel the subscription, $3,000 for a brick?
