MODERATORS
Sounds to me like they just want to keep that umbrella waiver in the Disney+ agreement rather than have that, rightly, struck down in court. They are very much still working under the assumption that a subscriber clicking "I Agree" to watch The Mandalorian waives any right to trial against any business unit of Disney Corp for any reason.
Absolutely despicable.
Its the dumbest death you can have in an amusement park, dying because the restaurant didnt labeled their allergies right and that the corporation tries to dismiss it because of an DIGITIAL contract that was made for a digital service.
But this is the bs that you got by applying law so freely.
Yep, exactly.
They're asserting and graciously waiving a "right" they invented themselves in order to keep that from being challenged in court.
Just this time, because I care about Disney so much, I'm waiving my right to steal from Disney.
They'll set this precedent eventually. It will only take a few tries and especially against someone who cant fight back.
