Heads up about bookshop.org
They changed something on their back-end for processing payments. I made a purchase yesterday and updated my credit card info. Suddenly I started to receive emails from a company called LINK that welcomed me to my new account and to finish setting up my profile.
WTF? There was no notice.
I didn't ask for this, nor do I want this. It is also a convoluted process to get Link to now remove all my personal data.
Super pissed at bookshop for this
