        How do you know a lot have blocked it? The 50+ responses show it can’t be that many.

        “Cable firms to FTC: We shouldn’t have to let users cancel service with a click — Customers may “misunderstand the consequences of canceling,” say lobbyists”

        “Cable Firms to FTC: We Shouldn’t Have to Let Users Cancel Service With a Click”

        Yes, so so different. Oh wait no, it’s the same thing with the subheading in the title instead. Are you taking the mick or just busting for an argument? They are posts about exactly the same thing.

            You don’t know what literally means. Stop talking, it’s embarrassing.

      Sigh, I wish there was a better repost notification. Maybe the third party app I use is the issue
