That is not 2 separate buttons on the right, like I initially thought clicking through checkout.

    Why would it be two buttons on the right, and what behavior would you expect if “Cancel Anytime” was a button?

    The goal of this is to get you to sign up for Prime, so there’s nothing yet to cancel.

    This is “annoying” design in the sense that getting an upsell is annoying, but I don’t really see it as malicious/asshole.

    I accidentally signed up for prime that way, and it was a pain to cancel. This shit should definitely be illegal.

    I downloaded the Amazon app a while back. The first message that popped up with a “join prime” screen. I very nearly tapped the join button because it was the only button on the screen and I wasn’t paying attention - I had to scroll to find the “maybe later” button. They seem to love their hostile UI.
