Good idea except I don’t like phoning up companies to cancel.

- jfim 7y agoThat's not legal in California since 2018. From SB 313, which requires that a subscription that was initially started online shall be cancelable online as well: a consumer who accepts an automatic renewal or continuous service offer online shall be allowed to terminate the automatic renewal or continuous service exclusively online https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billTextClient.xhtml?bill_id=201720180SB313 https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billTextClient.xhtm...
- echelon 7y agoWhat about all the other states? I don't live in California. Companies can and do script different behaviors depending on which state you live in. And that doesn't stop them from using dark patterns or cancellation fees.
