3.2 sent to arbitration because EULA

[–] chiliedogg@lemmy.world 3 points 8 hours ago

More and more.companies are dropping arbitration agreements these days because more consumers are realizing the consideration in the contract that allows them.to have mandatory arbitration requires the company to pay for the arbiter win or lose.

I had an issue with a vehicle that the dealership was refusing to repair. I looked up their arbitration process l and then looked up the arbitration firm.

When I pointed out to the manager of the dealership that the arbitration would cost them 5 grand even if they won, they fixed the car.

3.3 the secret contract-ninjas break into your house and do mortal kombat shit to your skeleton

Lol yeah... I know it's all fucked. Only way I've found to not let it completely overwhelm me with resignation or impotent rage is to look for those little "malicious compliance" opportunities. Even if only for joking around about. They're getting rarer and harder to find though. Big sigh.
