    These companies love raising prices and doing nothing in return.

    Fucking Amazon seems to be the worst lately, who happens to own Ring. I have a Blink system which they own too which I guess will be getting raised as well with no added benefits to me.

    They raised Prime and included ads and removed free features from my Echo to later sell back to me in a plan. I loved having Alexa listen for glass breaking or smoke alarms but that now costs money for absolutely no fucking reason.

    I’m getting rid of my Echos for this reason. It’s fucking bullshit and I canceled Prime and Prime Music because I will not pay for this shit. I want them to hurt for pulling this crap on people.

    I plan to also get rid of this Blink system too before they start fucking me over there as well. I wasn’t thrilled with any of the non cloud systems, but looks like that’s my best bet for the future so I can quit getting fucked over by rising costs that add no extra benefits to me.
