I find it interesting that amazon proactively suspends subscriptions you dont use so they wont charge you for a service you stopped using and forgot you had.

That seems oddly considerate at the expense of their own income...

@Ted How does making less money make their figures look better?

@freemo perhaps it’s cheaper for them to cut zombie accounts and free up the unprofitable resources than to spend money chasing customers for pennies they may not even realise they owe.

@johnhamelink Huh? What resources... Besides if the resources were more valuable than the subscription than it is a charity in its own right.

@freemo Sorry, forgot to get back to this message! I'm reading your original toot again - I made the assumption you were talking about AWS, but you were talking about product subscriptions on Amazon.com weren't you? If so, I think that's where the confusion is coming from! :D

@freemo ah, ok, i don't know the details of the contracts. haven't used amazon services in years :)
