    Including fucking DHL. I hate these companies.

    DHL:

    DHL and Deutsche Bahn also use Adobe for whatever they use it for. The ARD Mediathek uses Google for the account system, which is incredibly ironic (and the reason why I dont have an account)

      Ah, you mean that the ARD Mediathek uses Google Firebase, I guess?

      At least, I found this in their privacy policy:

      Für das ARD-Konto verwenden wir den Authentifikationsservice Firebase Auth. Dieser Service wird von Google auf Servern außerhalb der EU betrieben und durch die europäischen Standardvertragsklauseln geschützt.

      On the plus-side, the ARD Mediathek supports RSS feeds for now, unlike seemingly all the other web portals of our state-funded media.

        I never paid anything online using an EC card. Does that even work?

        But “Vorkasse” (bank transaction in advance) should be available. And Wero, even though my not-very-shitty bank does not support it

          Either through SEPA (for repeating business) or good ol’ Vorkasse, that worked several times for me. But yeah, most online transactions are still being done through PayPal as it is easier
