If you sign up for a free trial of Disney+, you can never sue them for killing a family member:

@LittleFrank 'Disney understandably may want to benefit from the privacy and confidentiality that arbitration brings, rather than having a wrongful death suit heard in public with the associated publicity," says Jamie Cartwright, partner at law firm Charles Russell Speechlys.'

Oh dear. Cartwright may wish to search the internet for Streisand Effect.

@LittleFrank If someone ever needed proof that capitalism is completely out of control and that corporations need to be regulated as fuck, here's a great example.

@darwinwoodka @LittleFrank their legal claim is that the arbitration agreement remains valid forever, even if you cancel the subscription. That's pretty common in arbitration agreements. Legal enforceability is another story, but I can't speak to that part.

@adrake @LittleFrank

Yeah, I don't think it's going to fly in protecting them from a criminal negligence lawsuit

@LittleFrank

Yet again honest customers are being punished, this time in the cruellest way possible.

Disney+ deserves to be pirated when they pull greedy sadistic stunts like this. Pirates might get fined, but they won't be signing away their right to sue Disney over dead family members.
