A reminder that you should never use services like #SignRequest to handle your legal documents.

I have an account because I had to sign some of my past employment contracts through platforms like these.

Now that enshittification has removed all corporate ethical boundaries, I may have to upgrade to a premium account if I want to maintain access to my old contracts and documents, or my account will be removed with everything attached to it.

(Btw, companies pay licenses to use services like SignRequest or Docusign already, I'm not sure what's the need of aggressively charging end customers as well).

I'm not even sure if it's legal to delete legal documents from a digital platform because of sudden changes in marketing practices, with no guarantees to be able to access content as sensitive as past employment contracts or tax forms without paying a premium for it.

In the meantime, please just send a PDF via email and ask the recipient to send a signed copy back to you.

There should be no space in this world for services with little to none added value like SignRequest that sell our sensitive information to other parties and even threaten to delete it if we don't pay, while providing just a thin layer on top of the "sign this PDF and email it" feature.
