It does seem to further refine the original intent of the law. My takeaway was it is now required to unsubscribe in the same way you sign up. If you can sign up online, you can quit online, not only by calling a number or visiting a place in person. If you signed up in person, you can quit in person, not call a number no one will answer.

There's a few other new provisions too, such as allowing for termination if the price of the subscription changes. Overall, it seems to improve on what was there.

I'm not in California, so I didn't read it word for word, as it won't apply to me, but it was interesting to get more of the truth. If you want to see the full text with the amendments highlighted, here you go.

It was a total guess but lawmakers are no stranger to making things as verbose as is needed.

People complain about how long and wordy all these rules are, but it's exactly the situation as in the top comment where people will weasel through whatever loopholes they can find if they think it gives them an edge at getting to people's money. I hope these changes make it a more effective law and that some of us outside of CA can enjoy the same benefits someday soon.
