NBCUniversal agrees to pay $3.6 million over Peacock cancellation lawsuit.
The lawsuit, filed by Los Angeles County, accused Peacock of making it difficult for users to unsubscribe from the service, according to a report from The Hollywood Reporter. The county argued that Peacock violated California’s newly amended click-to-cancel-style subscription law.
As part of the settlement, Peacock will also have it make it easier for users to cancel their subscriptions.

Chipotle will premiere a new album from Hype House alum Alex Warren.
Chipotle is hosting “one of the biggest and most unique listening parties in music history” tomorrow for You’ll Be Alright, Kid, a new album from TikTok Hype House member Alex Warren.
Judging from his current hit, “Ordinary,” Warren’s music has a lot in common with how Chipotle tastes, so the combo makes sense. The song will play at restaurants on Thursday night, and there’s a giveaway tied to the Chipotle app. Hopefully, it works out better than McDonald’s $1 million Flexi-Disc promotion in 1989.
