Wow. How did this person get a job handling customer complaints? That's just bad.

Yeah, I thought that was pretty curt too.

However, they might simply have a policy not to open a discussion regarding the issue. But, IMO they could have at least added: "We appreciate your feedback, and have made note of it", which would likely be true. If a majority of 'plus' members complained, they might change their approach.

Spyware is just not cool.

Also, open-source ftw.

I find it's matter of factness refreshing. Fuck handling me and double speak, just tell it how it is.

I agree about being clear. But this had kind of a "don't let the door hit you on the ass on your way out" quality.

Maybe it's because his head is upside down.

It smacked of "you need us, we dare you to leave".

It sure does. If they keep up with that attitude, their tunes might have to change once customers start fleeing.
