  • Ah yes. Binding arbitration clauses, just as the forefathers intended.

    • We promise we won't do anything illegal and worth suing us over, so just waive your right to sue us!

      This is a massive oversight in a country's code of law.

      • I'm not even at all sure that they promised that

        • Preventing others from bringing you to justice via lawsuits implies to me they intend to do something illegal.

          You could be charitable and say arbitration is a cost saving mechanism for lawsuits you successfully defend yourself from (the loser doesn't pay your legal fees in some countries).
