    You can’t make a perfect UI, because people think differently. What is obvious and logical to one person, is obscure and nonsensical to another. It is impossible to make a one-size-fits-all interface to anything, not just software.

      You could make a big, red, flashing button that says “pressing this button will cancel all your channels, are you sure you want to do that?”, and you would still get an insignificant amount of users complaining that pressing the button did exactly what it said it would because users don’t read.

        That’s just the cost of doing business.

        The system now is that you have to call them, get bombarded with ads and berated by their customer service for an hour, then maybe they’ll think about cancelling you. And gyms are even worse.
