That is not 2 separate buttons on the right, like I initially thought clicking through checkout.

Cancel the process of placing the order.

Fuck off, Andy

We’re having a conversation, there’s really no need to be hostile. You’re allowed to have your own view, as am I.

It was a joke that you're Andy Jassy, the CEO of Amazon, given your constant defense of the company's predatory practices.

I’ve been pretty clear that Amazon is predatory and well-known to be shitty. I’ve been clear using my own example of how difficult it is to cancel Amazon Prime as a great example of hostile UI design.

It’s possible to have an intelligent conversation about how the specific example used in this post isn’t a very good representation of hostile design, especially compared to the other egregious things Amazon has done and continues to do.

You don’t need to resort to being rude, it’s okay to say you don’t agree.
