PayPal will sell your data unless you opt out. The opting out part is confusing too.

I use PayPal primarily because it makes it easy to cancel things I sign up for. In the UI it’s a few clicks and you’re done. I could care less about the money sending function.

But it’s getting harder to justify using that platform. The alternative is to pay for everything with cc and use those services websites to cancel. The problem is that a lot of those places use shady techniques to make cancellation difficult 😞 and some companies don’t offer any other option that doesn’t involve a bunch of annoying steps.

Perhaps the real solution is to just stop paying for services entirely by avoiding them 🤷‍♂️
