    Literally can’t stay ahead of it.

    My kid re-activated prime on me a long time ago, before I had even started thinking about parental controls, by selecting a movie on the Kindle Fire playing with the remote.

    Thought I’d learned my lesson, but no. Couple years later he reactivated Audible by asking the thermostat to read him a story. He was probably like 4 or 5 by then. Not only reactivated Audible, but wasted a credit on The Three Little Pigs

      My 2 year old reactivated prime twice now, and a britbox subscription, all playing with the remote. I swear you can sit on the fire stick remote and it’ll sign you up.

      I actually was a prime member the first time, I cancelled it after that britbox subscription. We literally go out of our way now to avoid Amazon— which is haaaard. At least you can get a refund if you bug them enough.

        Ok, you’re the third person I’ve heard of that had an accidental britbox subscription. I’m not even sure you have to sit on the remote for that one.
