Maine Gov. Janet Mills (D) signed a bill (SB 650 a) last month intended to make it easier for Mainers to cancel subscriptions, from gym memberships to mobile apps and online software. Providers of such products and services will now have to give consumers clear information about renewals and consumers will have to provide consent for such renewals and will be able to cancel their subscriptions online. The law was modeled after rules adopted by the Federal Trade Commission last year but blocked by a federal appeals court last week on procedural grounds. (MAINE PUBLIC RADIO, LEXISNEXIS STATE NET)
