    $1/year is such a low-level ask and will gently push the users there past the barrier to where the price can be raised higher later.

    The amount being asked isn’t the barrier I’m referring to. Twitter could be charging one penny, and they’d still lose this particular group. Consumers have been burned by entering a credit card for a low or free trial only later to discover sudden fees they couldn’t get refunded. The only protection is to not give your credit card.
