Remind me to never, ever join a gym! This is why the free market works best with a good system of regulations; otherwise abuses tend to happen when customers don't have good information and can't easily move their business from one competitor to another. A rule requiring one-click cancellation was recently being discussed at the FTC. For my part, I've decided never to sign up for anything again if I can't cancel it with a click of a button (which is why I am not a Wall Street Journal subscriber, for example, even though I would gladly pay for their reporting).
