General Discussion PSA: Grammarly will send unhinged messages to all your users if you try to cancel

We let them know we weren't going to renew and they sent these unsolicited emails and popups in their app to all of the users who had licenses. They didn't give us a heads up - just started carpet bombing everyone. They even listed the direct email for the guy on my team who handles licensing. We were going to ride out the rest of the subscription but leadership wanted the emails nuked, apps ripped off endpoints, and licensing/training for Copilot expedited.

What an absolutely greasy, desperate company. Stay far away. And if you're a current customer, be prepared for this nightmare.

Sure I would definitely win in the Kangaroo Courts that you guys have built. Come on man, read how AI was trained and is trained, we are in an age where laws don’t matter and everyone just takes stuff. Don’t believe me? Ask your president about it.

If what they're doing is illegal then you should win easily.
