Their current “deal” is $1 a week billed at $4 every 4 weeks, their standard price is $25 for a 4 week period. You can verify this easily by checking their site.

I’m neither registering for them to harvest my personal data, nor paying them to do the same.

Paywalls are BS, and just as bad as ads on the internet. Even if they are “free” ways to get limited access.

Yet you want ads lol.

Why would you pay full price? It's way cheaper to find a good deal and then cancel after it runs out and then renew when they offer you the deal again, because they likely will.

If paywalls are just as bad as ads, I'm assuming you just want it for free.

Again, it's just an entitled attitude.

I’d rather not waste my time chasing around deals when paywall bypasses exist.

No, that's fair. I am not arguing about that.

I don't give a shit if you pay or not. It's just the attitude of idiots here that's crazy entitled.
