    How exactly is any of that legal? Genuine question. What about the Federal Trade Commission? Isn’t there fucking anybody regulating these corporations in the US?

    There are government websites you can report this to, though I do not know what effect that will have.

    IANAL, but my understanding is that if you paid for a year for a certain set of services they have to give you those services for the whole year, or refund you your money.

      They also likely claimed during the merger that it wouldn’t effect customers. Of course we knew that was a lie.
