I really want there to be a legal precedent for all these stupid terms of service things being invalid because we all know no one reads them and you can't realistically function in contemporary society without clicking those "agree" buttons from time to time.
*Although this case is not that, because disney's claim is insane for other reasons.

I thought there already at least kind of was, but then I also heard that a GOP judge shot down the precedent that the arbitration clauses don't mean shit, but then I heard another ruling that said it doesn't apply in the context of NDAs. At this point it's probably kind of a legal grey area as fucked up as it is.

Well I hope you're right that there kind of is, I am 0% expert on this stuff.
