while knowingly making it difficult for them to cancel their subscriptions

Oh yea, canceling prime is always a trip. There are like 5 steps and they move the correct option to cancel around, ask you multiple times, use all kinds of UI tricks and make it as ambiguous and confusing as possible.

Sure, it's perfectly doable if you're not a complete retard but it's shady as fuck.
