Under the FTC’s “Click to Cancel” rule, businesses would’ve had make it as easy to cancel subscriptions as it is to sign up. An appeals court has now struck that measure down.
If companies make cancelling a pain, you can use Privacy.com to make virtual cards that are easy to disable or limit as you see fit. Downside is it’s basically debit passthrough, so no credit card points or protection, but still can be handy situationally.
Big limitation with privacy.com is that it requires US bank account.
Many credit cards also offer virtual cards for this exact reason.
Not really American anyway to cancel. Gotta support the corps.
What type of logic is this? Because rules didn’t force them to make it easier it will get harder?
one more reason not to pay subscriptions
Now, why would anyone choose to cancel wearing the trihat?

Does putting a stop payment no longer work? That’s always been a nice “fuck you, let me cancel” option.
