The White House wants to crack down on companies that trick consumers into paying for subscriptions they no longer want or didn’t sign up for.

The FTC has proposed a rule that would require companies to make it easier to cancel a subscription or service as easy to cancel as it was to sign up.

The FCC is also looking at whether to extend similar requirements to companies in the communications industry.
