Yeah, I was thinking of editing my comment regarding this - lots of companies have started charging fees if you DONT use autopay. (They can call it a discount all they want, but the price you're paying with autopay is the price. They're really charging you a fee if you don't.) Practically speaking, it is likely cheaper if you pay 1 overdraft fee a year than paying $10 a month for manual payment. But, I'm a crotchety old stubborn man who somehow has the idea he can change a giant corporation by giving them a fake middle finger.

I hope they like their wives hairy, because I'm in.

I'm decades old. The lesson I learned over decades is to NEVER sign up for autopay. NEVER. THERE'S NOT A COMPANY OUT THERE THAT BUGS YOU FOR AUTO PAY THAT WON'T ABUSE YOU.

Just clarifying, does this report mean it's collected while a user is using the tools, or data that is generally scraped from the internet?

Well that was dumb. Who let a penguin fly a helicopter? Everyone knows penguins can't fly!

I have a 20ish year old history in my Gmail account organized in labels and all that. I wonder if it will be viable to migrate?
