Poor people do have options. Better options, in fact. There are mechanical airbag vests that cost about $700, and don't use proprietary CO2 carts. If you can afford this subscription for 2 years, you can afford a better vest. Helite has no way of disabling the vests you get from them.

Hot take: if you can afford $400 plus $12 a month, you can afford to save up another $300 for a device that doesn't use a battery and that the company can't ever disable
