You can ask for no ice and get the 1L of soda experience just as it was meant to be

A lot won’t do that anymore or have an auto size fill that even without ice you’ll get less of a product. Except for self serve stations, in that case, pour away! Oh, though some of them have added rfid tags to the cups so you can only use their cup and for a limited time. Ain’t capitalism grand.

Go to A&W, they never add ice.

I've had theaters only allowing one refill, but that was either with a marker to the bottom or honor system (as far as that goes for $8 drinks). But tracking it with a chip is insanity

Capitalism, baby! Every innovation is not for your sake. It's for their bottom line.

"butbutbut it's the best economic system ever!" Says every fucking moron that doesn't understand scientific and technological advancement.
