Where do deer flies reside <| sep |> No one said MiB wasn ' t a shitty person though . He just said his family never saw that side of him . <| sep |> Really amazing progress . Has anyone else noticed ? <| sep |> Since I don ' t know the details I can only make assumptions , but when you accepted the subscription you probably agreed that they can have your card infos . If you would have payed with cash , you probably would have had to fill out a form . Did you give them a shipping address at the store or how did they know to send it to you ? Because if you filled out a form for that already , they would have sent you a bill probably . But since you payed with the card , they already had the needed information to charge you . Either way even if you do not give anyone permission to have your infos , andor to automatically charge you , agreeing to that subscription allows them to get access . And that is not a scam , there are actually laws that allow these things for various reasons . This is why it is always suggested not to accept any sort of subscription and read through the fine print if you do that , I ' m quite sure you will find information on exactly that . Especially these days with ppl paying wireless instead of cash , companies know everything about you . And even if you did not agree to anything , the store you purchased stuff with your card may or may not give other companies these informations without asking your for permission . And to be honest , this should not be a surprise to you . Every time you do not pay with cash but other options like checks , cards , paypal , etc . it is logged . Everyone with the respective clearance can check on that data whenever they think they should check you out . We are transparent as fuck . Not only do governments collect as much data as possible about us , also companies can do that ofc with limits , but as you can see rather easily without even the need to ask you . And it ' s all legal . If you are not ok with it and you have every right to be upset you should go read up some more on these things and maybe do something about it by getting more active when it comes to politics . Look for likeminded ppl , try to get your local representatives to take this more serious , try to inform other ppl , do campaigns etc . Because this will only get worse within the next few decades . I promise .
