Honestly, signing up for a service sounds way more risky than cancelling. I think singing up should be 2x more bureaucratic than cancelling it.

It shouldn't be more bureaucratic because then people are not inclined to use anything, including services they need or want. It should simply be clearly worded so that you know what you're getting and don't feel tricked by any hidden fees etc.
