Mayor Mamdani has taken a firm stance against subscription services that make it difficult for consumers to cancel, calling on companies to adopt a simple "click-to-cancel" policy or face potential penalties. The move targets businesses accused of burying cancellation options in fine print or requiring lengthy phone calls, leaving customers trapped in recurring charges. Officials argue the practice exploits consumers and undermines trust in digital services. The announcement signals a push for greater transparency and fairness in subscription-based industries.
