Cue all the "that's it, I'm out" comments. Seems like no one actually ever leaves.

I cancelled all my streaming subscriptions last month. Netflix, Disney, HBO.

I'm a full time pirate now with iptv and I'm a member of a forum where you download from each others mega cloud.

With my 1Gbit connection it is fun to download again

That's how late-stage-capitalism works. companies just exist to maximize profits, unnecessary scale, or simply make more profit for their shareholders. It's not for the customer. As soon as the innovations stop and the market is cornered by the competition, it's just maximizing profits until the wheels fall off, f the user.

According to my email history, I cancelled in March 2022. So there's one person.

I left. Only thing I have left is Hulu and I'm about to boot them too.
