Nobody's safety is at risk here

Correct. Very astute.

but the solution is simple: don't pay for it.

Sure. But of course, the point of doing that is to suggest to companies that this is naughty behavior. This is naughty behavior, isn't it?

I do believe I did call it bullshit in the post you're replying to. However, people paying for it implies acceptable behavior, doesn't it?

Nooooo-ho-ho-ho, no it does not. You can justify a lot of evil shit with that line of thinking.
