I wish more people knew about Privacy.com.

Using these virtual cards has been a life-saver.

Want to try a service for a month that doesn't do free trials? Hit that dark pattern with a single-use Privacy card and let the account lapse.

Want to join a gym but avoid their extremely predatory cancellation process? Boom; Privacy card that shit and term the card when you cancel.

Did you see a cool widget on a site that's notorious for getting pwned? Single use Privacy card that shit (or use Ironvest's Blur Virtual Cards if you want to use a credit card behind the scenes. Slightly more expensive and cumbersome though.)

No monthly subscription shall ever see the last four of my actual cards ever again. Gotta fight fire with fire.
