No other options, must pay. :( The old timers had a word for how to fight such bullshit. Sounded like "shrike"? Something like that? Perhaps, "Buoy snot"? Anyway, they had some sort of spell by which they refused to give evil corporations their money. No idea how that worked, lost knowledge. (Queue 100 comments about Game Pass being a requirement for modern life, like electricity and water.)
