I recently commented about how much I hate Adobe for their horrible subscription tactics, and the fact that the Canadian government REQUIRES you to use Adobe reader to sign PDFs in order to immigrate to canada.
The last time I complained to them, they offered me a free extended trial in order to make things right. I tried to cancel the free trial on July 10th, and was informed that it would cost $100 to cancel my contract.
I don't have enough money to hire lawyers, but I am 100% sure what they did was illegal. I have a severe mental health disorder, which resulted in me trying to kill myself after being literally fucking raped by a company. July 10th is also my birthday, which was fucking great. I fucking LOVE me a good corporation, they bring so much joy to the world.
Sorry for the TMI, I fucking hate this company.
This took a few frustrated attempts to discover for me. Moved to Canada last year and while I am a citizen my wife and kids are not. There was a lot of paperwork to fill out and submit and having repeated issues with documents not opening and seeming not to exist was crazy making. I dont normally install Adobe anything on my computers but decided it was worth a try...
Bright side of the story is that after less than a year the family is now all legal and have their PR cards. The Canadian gov can be refreshingly efficient sometimes.
Canada's kinda a joke tho, were just america cosplaying as europe cause it makes us feel good - but just gives us twice the drawbacks and the rich twice the benefits
(I just want a fucking apartment without going in debt, is that too much to ask)
