Cancel your ChatGPT Plus, burn their compute on the way out, and switch to Claude
OpenAI just made a deal with a devil and lost this customer of 2 years. The company (originally non profit) that told us they existed to build AI safely for humanity is now taking Pentagon contracts. Sam Altman decided defense money was more important than every principle the company was founded on. If you’re done funding that, here’s what to do. Cancel Plus right now: Settings, Subscription, Manage, Cancel. You keep access through the end of your billing cycle so there’s no reason to wait. Do it today. Make sure you request a refund as well. Use every cent of what you already paid for if they don’t cancel your plus immediately, they’ll try to have you pay through the end of the billing cycle. FUCK THEM! You’ve got the rest of the month. Max it out. Hit your usage limits every single day. Run nonsense prompts, waste their compute, flood their training pipeline with garbage. You already paid for these resources. Make them expensive to serve. They want to build weapons tech, they can do it without subsidizing it on your dime. Export your data Settings, Data Controls, Export Data. They’ll email you a zip file with all your conversations, usually within an hour. Download it before your subscription ends. Switch to Claude Go to claude.ai and upload your ChatGPT conversations. Tell Claude the context and pick up right where you left off. All your projects, code, writing, research, whatever you had going carries right over. Claude Pro is the same $20/month. Anthropic was founded by people who left OpenAI specifically because they saw the company abandoning its mission. Turns out they were right about every single concern they raised. This matters because OpenAI did this on purpose They didn’t get dragged into defense work and theyproactively rewrote their own usage policies to allow it. They removed the language banning military applications because they wanted to and because Sam Altman is a dirtbag. This was a calculated business decision to chase government money at the expense of everything they promised when they asked for your trust and your subscription. You can be done with them in 15 minutes. And you can make the last month hurt a little on your way out.
