Lets cut to the chase with a CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT, we will make this the biggest court case in history and end up making millions of google for Making up terms and conditions and linking it to our personal email accounts which have nothing to do with what we purchased in the first place ,
Please stop, just stop.

Your expression through emoji is truly breathtaking. I wish I could be as poignant with so few keystrokes.
