Without even looking at the list I know Amazon, Disney and Netflix will be on it.
They know exactly how much they take every month from account that barely use them and they’d like to keep it.
I think they should go one further with the rule. Anybody not using the service for a month gets to have it cancelled automatically, and only resumed when they use it again.
I’m not ready to give Amazon any credit here. They use a lot of scummy dark patterns like swapping accept/deny buttons and making accept super easy and friendly to click while decline is small plain text.

I’m picking up qhat you’re putting down about shitty companies but the problem with your guess is that almost 100% of the shitty companies using shitty marketing techniques you encounter in the average week are all outsourced to marketing firms like the three petitioning the lawsuit.
No intention of this being “HAHA YOU WERE WRONG!” Just wanted to let you know there weren’t only 3 petitioning companies named in the court document. Unless they list more further into the document than fuckin page 60 cuz that’s where I threw in the towel lol.
Oh look, a list of shitty companies everyone should avoid.
How nice of them to make it for us.

For as awful as Amazon is, I’ll give them this one.
Cancelling prime is shockingly easy compared to what most places drag you through: account settings, prime, cancel, yes I’m sure, done.
Requiring that from everyone would be a huge step forward. Also let’s make sure it forces gyms to do it, too.

I was subbed to Humble Choice for a while.
Trying to skip a month was a minefield of dark patterns. At least three confirmation screens, buttons swapping places and colours…
Gym memberships should definitely be easier to cancel

That absolutely no one will avoid.
Hard to avoid the local cable monopoly for internet.
I’d love to see the USPS bring back basic banking and then double down by providing internet AS A SERVICE.
It would bring in two solid revenue streams for the Post Office, and cut a lot of cancer from our economy.
