Amazon

For as awful as Amazon is, I'll give them this one.

Cancelling prime is shockingly easy compared to what most places drag you through: account settings, prime, cancel, yes I'm sure, done.

Requiring that from everyone would be a huge step forward. Also let's make sure it forces gyms to do it, too.

I was subbed to Humble Choice for a while.

Trying to skip a month was a minefield of dark patterns. At least three confirmation screens, buttons swapping places and colours...

I'm not ready to give Amazon any credit here. They use a lot of scummy dark patterns like swapping accept/deny buttons and making accept super easy and friendly to click while decline is small plain text.
