Mamdani is going to town on the annoyance economy

Zohran Mamdani's administration is targeting bureaucratic headaches, fees, and scams that create minor daily indignities in New York City. Initiatives include a finalized "click-to-cancel" rule for subscriptions and a proposed ban on hidden "junk fees" across various products. Furthermore, the Department of Consumer and Worker Protection has filed lawsuits against businesses such as self-storage companies and dental providers.
