What an absurd burden to put on someone. If I can opt in electronically, I should be able to opt out electronically.

There aren’t laws saying the company had to tell the truth, so if they lie, what’s the punishment?

Edit: also, wouldn’t the power to punish them have to come from some sort of law or regulation? 🤔

They talk about broken promises and misrepresentation of what they would do after the merger. Corporations aren’t people and don’t have morals to stop them from breaking promises or just flat out lying. The only way they will do anything is if it makes them money or they are forced (regulated)
