US Government is suing Adobe

[gumzy3000 7,903]

I had to get a very specific task done immediately a few months ago and needed some Adobe product to do it. I signed up for it thinking it was a free trial but now they are taking $30 a month from my back account. Anyone know how I can cancel this? I will call them soon to discuss it but any tips would be helpful.

f.u.ck Adobe.

Finally. I’m trying to cancel my subscription for years already and they always want me to pay like 70€. Be serious

that AI thing is absolutely ridiculous. I watched a video about it and the screenshots are stored in some easily accessible non encrypted folder, and the AI doesn't even automatically blur passwords and keystrokes and stuff? whose idea was this 

Absolute insanity. I can't believe this is what it's gotten to

Actually yes I can. Unfortunately

pirated photoshop CS6 is what i have and i don't need more

no connection to the internet, no subscription, no steeling art or data

At least they changed their ToS:

"Here’s what we don't do: We don’t scan or review content that is stored locally on your device. We also don’t train generative AI models on your or your customers’ content unless you’ve submitted the content to the Adobe Stock marketplace."

But they're still terrible. I needed it for illustrations at my old company and it was always a giant pain. If you only need it a few times a year there's no system for you.

I miss non-subscription licensing models. Almost every software I use nowadays has some semi-hidden rat tail attached to it.

Too many companies do this. Sue them all.  (And too many companies make it hard to cancel service or subscriptions)

Adobe is evil, it's like a stubborn cancer to even get rid of. I made the mistake of subscribing to the damn thing once because I needed to use photoshop and it was like pulling teeth to get myself unsubscribed, they kept wanting a bunch of payments

Thing is, if you barely use those programs but still need them, it's like they almost force you to pirate their software. I won't pay a subscription if I'm only gonna use Photoshop twice every other month but still gonna need to use it those 2 times. This subscription model is absurd. And on top of that, Adobe really DESERVE to be pirated.
