Yeah, I realize that is more than the 45 characters allowed, could be better worded, and has other issues. But in concept could this be a way to fight back? I mean, I disclosed my conditions and Marriott accepted them, so.........
Unfortunately that's going to be up there with people writing "I do not allow Facebook to analyse my data" on Facebook.
