My wife got this today and was really pissed off, and for once (
) I agree with her. (I’m a Plus user by choice BTW).
The fact that there’s no obligation at the end of the trial is irrelevant to me.
I think that “Opt in to try this for free if you wish, without having to opt out to avoid being charged at the end of your trial” would be a refreshing change. But opting someone in without asking or warning them, even if without action on their part they’ll be opted back out (and apparently not giving them the option to cancel it in the meantime) is not on.
Call me old fashioned but…
