    This is the most ridiculous American thing I’ve read in a long time.

    They really went above and beyond to look for any “legal” excuse to get away with it. Whoever suggested to even use this as a defense can’t possibly be a human being. What an absolutely disgusting low-point for such a company…

      I hope some politician finally steps in and nullifies all forced arbitration clauses, in past and future contracts. There is no legitimate reason for them to be allowed from the customer’s standpoint (and most voters are primarily customers).

      Sooo …

      If you only ever pirated their content, you have better legal standing?

      I think I don’t get how that’s the message they want to send out to the world…
