DirectTV was sold to AT&T in September 2019. My experience is : they call up, I say "Do not add channels, do NOT add a channel that I have to cancel later when billing starts. REPEAT: DO NOT ADD CHANNELS. Thanks for calling. Good bye."
And they add channels. NFL and other sports need to team with Youtube, hulu or netflix next time.

You can fork and/or add an entry. That's why it is in the open.
I've tried for 2 years straight to cancel my NFL Sunday Ticket subscription, and every year it comes back. It's like a bad penny that I can't get rid of.
But then for each of these years it doesn't bother me as much when the games start back up, but I'll have super buyers remorse at the end of the season. I think they are just banking on that.
It's still a dark dark pattern they are running.
