One thing that surprised me (not sure if it's in the article) is how many people have opted to sign up for a 10 year subscription, to avoid the hassle. I'm proud that people trust the site enough to spring for a decade, and proud that I don't keep anyone's payment info on file

I feel scammed, only the 5 years plan was available to me.

And you didn't even get an EU-compatible invoice! Brussels is going to hear about this!
