I can easily cancel from the nytimes.com website by going to my account settings.

I just now unsubscribed from NYT, in response to this thread. I had to do an online chat, but at least it wasn’t an overly prolonged process. I am quite certain that I did not have an option to unsubscribe from account settings.
I also unsubscribed from The Washington Post. It did have a non-chat-based unsubscribe option, which I greatly appreciated.
I also unsubscribed from The Economist. It was the worst. They went through multiple but-here’s-an-even-better-deal stuff, then tried to subscribe me to email newsletters.
Thanks, HN, for the incentive to do this; I had meant to for some time.

That must be new, maybe in response to some recent FTC opinions that every web site should have a cancelation option that was equivalently easy to the subscribe option. Used to be you could only cancel over the phone.

Figures. I wonder what it would cost to buy myself a functional California address.
