Internations.org uses Roach Motel and Forced Continuity Dark Patterns.
“The German “expat community” website @Internationsorglures their members into automatically renewing membership subscription plans & charges their credit cards without prior notification for yearly membership fees. If an @Internationsorg member decides not willing to accept that the Albatross membership was automatically renewed, they force their #darkpatterns on them by hiding the “downgrade” & “delete profile” options from the user interface & threat their members with debt collectors.”
