‘Click to Cancel’ legislation introduced in Pennsylvania

This sounds great.

Devil's advocate: Would this (or existing states' legislation, like California's) have any means of protecting against e.g. a non-CA user just changing their location to CA and immediately canceling? It sounds like an easy loophole for non-CA folks.

I don’t see why legislators would have a desire to prevent that. But businesses might, and some require some proof of living in CA for things like CCPA requests, like a mailing address or ID in CA.

I saw on HN that someone changed their address to CA for a day to cancel their NYT subscription. But ideally those sorts of loopholes won't be necessary if more states add the same requirement
