Proton VPN's pricing page exposed an ab-test identifier linked to two VPN Plus prices: €2.99/month (70% off) and €3.49/month (65% off). Repeated testing produced B → A → B → A → B, with the variant matching the rendered price each time. €12 difference over 24 months.

Language is generally workable if it communicates the intended message. In that sense, I acknowledge that it is generally understood what something means, but not always.

However, it is semantic gibberish, and fuck anyone who supports that gibberish.

But yes, it's fine enough in the same way that when someone says "could of" we know they meant "could've" or "could have". It doesn't make it correct. And it is still grating.

Two asshats disagreed with my comment above enough to downvote. This is also grating because it means they actively support WRONG. And it is WRONG.

It's fine, but it is irritating when people are willfully ignorant.
