They do take it seriously enough to mention that jurisdiction fir everything except clause 5 is in Ireland. This definitely went to some lawyer before they used it
Agreed, sneaking crap like this in contracts should be grounds for nullifying them since it shows the companies don’t have the expectation that people who click the accept button have read through 20 pages of deliberately obtuse legal junk (never mind actually understanding it enough to make an informed decision to agree to it).
That’s not even mentioning the shitty condescending attitude of “lol look at this wacky stuff we do…but we’re reserving the right to financially destroy you based on the terms hidden in this document alone”
When not even the companies take these massive documents seriously, it’s clear that we need to rethink how this all works.
True. It doesn’t even state what happens if I have a pre-established eldritch pact going before signing this.
I don’t mind these contacts / TOS. But the courts have to separate fixed contaycts open to the public vs. negotiated contracts in private.
Fixed contacts, which do not allow for negotiations, should not be able to use individual arbitration clause.

Obviously, shits very serious so clauses to exclude clause 5 needed to be written. That said, still hilarious to see
