Uber 40% discount not actually being 40% and instead being some weird BS of 40% that’s in the TOS.
Should Terms of Service/EULAs/etc be able to be that way where they can hide a bunch of shit like this in the first place or no? Also should the government have the ability to regulate that corporations not do this in the first place. /r/AssholeDesign is an interesting subreddit to me because of how shitty corporations are, but because the only way to stop corporations is using the power of the government for the most part, what can we do?
This sort of shit, along with...
Deceitful "free subscription trial for a month!" ( the desired effect being uninterested people will forget to unsubscribe and be charged the following months untill they figure out they are being charged for it. The companies doing it KNOW that's the vast majority of the "new costumers" they got did not want to go beyond the free month... if they watched anything at all. )
Gift cards with expiration dates ( the new version of the fraud is "fees on unused cards" depleating the money down to zero, government is still sleeping on that version of the same fraud. )
...have been deemed fraudulent advertisement/products in Québec.
When a new form of fraud, or a new paint on a old fraud comes up, yes the hammer of law should smack the cunts doing it.
