Remember when you bought software in a box with a license key, installed it, activated it once, and all the developer ever knew about you was that someone had purchased their software at some time in the past, and they left you the fuck alone because you hadn't given them your complete personal credentials and they didn't assume a right to behave like your ongoing business partners just because you bought their product once?

Teamviewer sent collections after me for $600 for a license I didn't use, they auto-renewed via an evergreen clause that I didn't realize was in place, but my credit card had expired so they couldn't take the money. This was something like 4 or 5+ years ago. TBH I am shocked anyone was still using them in 2021.
They sent collections and it was essentially take the hit on my credit score, or pay for a license on a product for a term I never used it, didn't intend to use, nor want to use. That sort of evergreen clause and enforcement isn't legal in every state, but they knew it was in mine.
They're ghouls and every day that they slide further into obscurity and uselessness is a good day.

Team viewer hit me with a "we've detected commerical activity on your account" then locked me out for some set amount of time while I was trying to remote into the computer connected to my 3D printer... in the same house. Uninstalled it from all my computers right after that and just jumped to chrome remote desktop. Probably never going back.

There's a (not so rigorous) psychological term for what TeamViewer did: boundary destroying. They basically ignore and violate all of your interpersonal boundaries despite you explicitly telling them what not to do. If you ever meet a person who does this, do the grey rock technique (give the simplest, least interesting answers possible) until you can disengage and cut them out of your life.

Reminds me of the time I applied for a loan, I was refused due to bad credit. I was then bombarded for 6 months by the loan company with adverts offering me a loan. I called multiple times and sent multiple emails but they kept coming. I found this majorly frustrating as they refused to give me a loan yet still spammed me offering a service they won't get me. So I took to Twitter, called them out, and the tweet got like and shared enough for them to pay attention to it. They ended up compensating me financially, as they knew I had a harassment case against them, and that their harassment was now public.
So, always complain, and go to the length you need for them to listen.
