Why Millions Are Deleting Adobe (FTC Lawsuit Explained)

Adobe is by far the most recognizable creative software company in the world. From Photoshop and Premiere Pro to After Effects and PDFs, Adobe is ubiquitous. Don’t confuse this popularity with happy customers though because Adobe’s customers are actually quite loathing of Adobe for a variety of reasons starting with the subscription. Adobe has not only completely eliminated the option to buy their software but they’ve implemented several predatory subscription policies to milk customers for as much as possible. In fact, their policies were so predatory that the FTC is suing 2 executives who played a direct role in shaping these policies. Aside from milking customers for their money, Adobe also got into a habit of milking their work. Allegedly, Adobe was using local work on users’ computers to train their AI models. All of this has driven the distaste for Adobe into overdrive leading users to leave in droves to Da Vinci Resolve and Affinity. This video explains the various controversies Adobe is caught up in and why millions are deleting Adobe.
