It just came up this morning when I wanted to read the news. Wanted money. I would like to go back to the plain vanilla free one if I can figure out how to do it.

Apparently what you have is Apple News+. https://www.macrumors.com/guide/apple-news-plus/ It seems to give you access to a lot of newspapers and magazines that would normally be behind their own paywalls. It also allows family members to share your subscription. So it may be worth $9.99/month. Assuming your family still reads, rather than consuming everything as video streams, Instagrams and Tik-Toks. Or maybe I should say assuming your family still reads long-form publications rather than tweets.

Or did you have to agree to something and put your ccard details in when you downloaded the app. Which should have thrown up red flags right there....

Most “news” these days seems to be opinion, propaganda and ads. They should pay me to view it, not the other way around.
