Of course I realise the terms and they may even be legal someplaces.

But the basic reality is that none of these firms would enter into a contract with terms like these because they are outrageous.

Just think about it. The act of doing nothing over a certain short time period is supposed to legally bind you in a new contract and even with unknown pricing?

This is not business between equals and people behaving this way deserve all the crap they can be tossed.

Well, you can in theory cancel at any time. In the case of Disney and Netflix, it is pretty easy (or at least used to).

I don't do yearly subscriptions for this very reason, though.
