Ah I thought this first was stating FTC is not allowing any negative-options anymore, which would run through many online and offline companies that don't even deal with affiliates. Jesse is a guy most of us have heard his story, and the fedtradecomm went after him a year or two ago hard so I'm surprised this is now being published as new. His main issue was not allowing the customers who wanted to opt out before their trial period was up to do so, in turn forcefully having them pay the re-bill. This is where his plan backfired.
