FTC Faces Industry Pushback on Making Cable TV Cancellation as Easy as a Single Click

Cable TV companies, represented by NCTA, oppose the FTC's proposed rule to make service cancellation easier, arguing that it could disrupt beneficial practices and lead to extensive costs. The rule aims to simplify the cancellation process and protect consumers from subscription traps, but industry leaders claim it would require significant system rebuilds and result in price hikes for customers. The debate is ongoing, with potential further hearings to discuss the matter.
