This is actually a very smart and simple rule and I love the reciprocity of it---if it takes a click to sign up it must take no more than a click to cancel; if you want to require months of advanced notice to cancel, then you also have to wait just as many months before charging when someone signs up. Tit-for-tat.
Seems like fair game.
