I wouldn't hand that right to them on a silver platter. This is what consumer protection law is for.
Why do they have the "right" to lock people into an ongoing subscription though? Subscriptions should absolutely be easy to cancel, even if there's a termination penalty, it should not be on the consumer to jump through hoops and waste their time to get out of it.
You can probably also call your credit card provider for a charge back. That also hurts the companies credit.
