I did a free subscription back in like 2002 or so. Nice magazine but not something I kept around (by way of comparison I have PC Gamer magazines from 1996 or earlier).
At some point I realized it had been more than a year and they were still sending me the magazine. I think they sent me a renewal form, which I ignored, but the magazine kept coming anyway.
I moved across the state and never notified EGM and the magazine followed me.
At some point it did finally stop coming but it came for free for years. My guess would be that they valued selling my eyeballs more than they valued my subscription fees.
Same thing happened to Penny Arcade
