How is it remotely legal for a company to opt out of the standard legal process?
America are you actually capable of not being cartoonishly malicious towards your people?
Would it hold up in court? Probably not. But in America the court system is pay to win, and does any person have the funds to go up against a literal team of lawyers paid top dollar by their backing corporation?
So yeah, you could sue them and say the license agreement doesn't matter that it's not legal, but you're going to bankrupt yourself doing so.
America, land of the "free"
Land of the Fee*
And The Home of The Slave!
Uncle Sam Goddamn
Thanks! I've never heard that one.
No. Being cartoonishly malicious towards our wage slaves is our guiding principle.
That poetic sounding "Shining city on a hill" is a gated community surrounded by slums that don't have electricity.
It's baffling, isn't it? How can a company just unilaterally decide to not be subject to this or that law, and the courts just... go with it? It's the same level of idiocy exhibited by sovereign citizens, but somehow, when you're a corporation they actually let you do it...
The idea is that if you wanted to fight a big company with lawyers you'll either lose because they will delay till you're broke, or you'll win but the lawyers will get most of the money. If you have a legit issue they would honor resolving the issue without anyone having to spend time, money, and publicity in court. It means you might actually win one of these times. The joke part is we already have an unbiased arbitration system...our courts.
This is legal, currently, because this is basically a non-disclosure. We will deal with our problems outside the legal system and no one will talk about it. We do this in other cases but its usually human to human, not human to massive corporate entity.
The real reason all the companies are coming up with forced arbitration clauses is that it kills class-action lawsuits.
It is because the company can claim u opted to use their service so they can make whatever rules they want, and the company has nothing to lose by pushing the legal limits bc the company is a person so none of the ceos or board members will ever be held responsible. Welcome to capitalism unchecked
