Peloton has removed “Just Run” from its treadmills, a feature that allows Peloton treadmill owners to just run without any subscription.

The removal of the free feature pretty much makes the pricey treadmills useless for users who are not ready to pay for the company’s monthly subscriptions and has further implications of who actually owns the product you paid for in this world of constant subscriptions – especially now that tech companies are comfortable to ban users’ accounts.

Right-wing dissidents should probably avoid internet-connected exercise equipment & appliances. Otherwise, libtech firms could one day block you from using your treadmill, refrigerator, etc for hate speech & wrong-think.

I've seen the commercials, and they were enough of a deterrent. I don't want to watch some sweaty nigger, and I damn sure am not going to pay for the privilege of having one ook at me personally through a screen. I can always shut the screen door and order delivery fast food if I want that experience.

God I hate those commercials. I bought an elliptical during COVID when my gym closed for a month (not Peloton, nordictrack). I recently googled how to cancel my subscription that it came with, which was free for a year. Now, all I get on YouTube are NordicTrack ads.

Might want to google how to hack it as they may take the same track as Peloton.
