The problem with subscription services is that it's fairly easy to argue it's interstate commerce that states don't have jurisdiction over.

    California has the law and visa is based in california. We can push them to make it so that if any site accepts visa they have to follow california's lawn click to cancel. It'll be a nice change from them trying to ban the anime, and do something useful.

    States have argued successfully to tax cross state commerce. That's why you get charged local sales tax even when ordering from a company that does not have a presence in your state. I don't see this as any different, but someone will need to go first to set the precedent.
