    “Yup yup, we hear you loud and clear, everyone, it’s all good bro”

    [Doesn’t turn full price on by default]

    “So we actually paid an expert consultant to tell us that a percentage of our user population actually wants to be actively deceived whenever they use our service. So by default we will still obscure these non-negotiable fees that you will definitely pay in the final pricing.”
