I’m unable to turn off this setting right now. Getting an error reported. I’m sure this is totally unrelated to people finding out about it and turning it off.

Typical, just like how half of unsubscribe links produce errors, or just 404.

Bitch, I did the guest checkout so I wouldn’t have to make an account. It’s never “faster” or “more convenient” to check out - my browser already has my details saved, I don’t need my credit card and personal info stored in yet another poorly secured database just waiting for the next breach and another free year of credit monitoring.

Take your accounts and mailing lists and fuck off already.

I run my own email server, so when I get unsolicited spam from a company, I’ve started creating server rules that forward emails from their spam address to their sales or support address, and then deletes the email from my server before ever getting delivered. I’m done playing their games, now they can play my games!

a timeless classic.

had the same problem with lufthansa where the refund form would lead to an error every time after filling it …for a whole week conveniently this happened after a strike created a lot of clear cases for refunds

obviously you have to apply for a refund for your non existent flight. it wont happen automatically

Note that there are two similar options: “PayPal shopping” and “Personalized shopping”. The post mentions this but they’re similar enough that I kind of glossed over it and almost missed the Personalized one.

Same. I went back to see what else was in there and discovered the second one. Sneaky.

There is no such setting in my PayPal account. I’m not in the EU. There are only options for how people can find me, blocked contacts, request my data, correct my data, and delete my account.

I am extremely tired of this shit. Doing business with a company shouldn’t mean that every other business on the planet gets to know everything that said company has been wrongfully spying on me for.

In the iOS app, it was Settings > My Profile > Data & Privacy
