U.S. sues Adobe over shady subscription plans and hidden fees
Adobe, makers of Photoshop and its Creative Suite of design-related applications, is being sued by the U.S. government over hidden fees in its subscription plans and the contractual obligations it places on users.
In a complaint filed in the San Jose, California, federal court, the Federal Trade Commission said Adobe buries the fees, which sometimes reach hundreds of dollars, and other important terms in its "annual paid monthly" subscription plan in the fine print, or behind textboxes and hyperlinks.
