   Federal Trade Commission Proposes Rule Provision Making it Easier for   
   Consumers to "Click to Cancel" Recurring Subscriptions and Memberships   
      
       Proposal seeks to make it as easy to cancel enrollment as it was to   
       sign up

       The Federal Trade Commission today proposed a "click to cancel"   
       provision requiring sellers to make it as easy for consumers to cancel   
       their enrollment as it was to sign up. That is just one of several   
       significant updates the Commission is proposing to its rules regarding   
       subscriptions and recurring payments. The new click to cancel   
       provision, along with other proposals, would go a long way to rescuing   
       consumers from seemingly never-ending struggles to cancel unwanted   
       subscription payment plans for everything from cosmetics to newspapers   
       to gym memberships.
