US couple blocked from suing Uber after crash say daughter agreed to Uber Eats terms

Forced arbitration is unjust and should be outlawed. It's only legal in 7 other countries: UK, Canada, Australia, Ireland, Saudi Arabia, China and India.

That's right: 4 countries that are essentially US lapdogs, two dictatorships and one that's on the fast track towards becoming one.

Also, you can totally see how America is so much better and totally different than China. The more I look at both, the less I can tell the difference.

But at least in the United States, there is hope.

I used to wonder what happened to kids who would always change the rules in the middle of a game like, "nuh uh nuh uh I have a shield around my whole body that blocks lasers," so that they never ever lose. I thought they just grew out of it but now I realize they all became corporate lawyers for tech companies

the problem here is obviously corporations running the world. the solution is obviously terrorizing them into submission. the government ain't gonna save you.

Disney may have abandoned this strategy with their wrongful death suit, but they pioneered it for other shitty companies. Great. This is reality now.

And they'll keep getting away with it as long as corporations are treated better than actual people. And you know they put shit like this in the agreements because they know nobody reads them. And every time we get complacent or blame someone else, it only gets worse.

Ok I think this should finally bring to light how TOS should not be enforceable contracts. As

1- its common knowledge that the average person does not read TOS. Therefore, it should be unreasonable to expect the average consumer to have completely understood what they have agreed to, without any legal representation to clarify the contract

2 - TOS are written like legal jargin straight from the legal department. Unfortunately, the client base is either 10 year olds lying about their age, 80 year olds who barely understand what a TOS is, and the average consumer who was never presented with a contract, just a simple "Accept or Decline"

3 - If TOS is meant to be as enforceable as it is, then we need a new set of data laws / seperate justice system to actually regulate those TOS. From what I understand, real life laws still apply to contracts where both parties consented. Aka, even if you agreed to kill someone who wanted to die, murder is illegal.

I hope we can bring some real change instead of letting this go to the side too. I was hoping the Disney thing would be bigger than it was, but then again who's taking Disney to court and surviving? It's sad to think they can get away with this, and its sadder to know we're less valuable than the data we produce.

This is fucked. But I have a question. Why does Uber need to bother relying on the daughter’s agreement with Uber Eats? Surely the parents as Uber ride share users already agreed to similar terms no? Is this their way of testing this in court to see how far they can push it and set a precedent?

Well, I won’t be using Uber any more. Right alongside anything produced by Disney.

Fuck both of them.

Cyberpunk 2077 was on to something about Corpos. This is just evil.

what the fuck... Really? Again?

I hope the state supreme court allows them to keep their right to a jury trial. It clearly states in our 7th amendment it is preserved for any case above $20 and that it will always be upheld. There is no alternative in the wording, it is so clearly written and if it is ignored I want to see all the judges bank account and donations because the constitution for jury trials are clearly written and cannot be told in any other way.

Human lives have been deemed valueless it seems. Only worth as much as they have already produced and nothing more.

Not by the average person mind you but by every person above that has reduced humanity to numbers and economic performance. Why care when the person can be replaced or the product they make reproduced through automation or cheaper labor elsewhere. People are just the cogs that are worth as much as they are currently valued at and it must be reduced to make those that feel worth more than the rest of us feel even more powerful and necessary.

We have forgotten the worth of human effort and lives not yet lived while some get distracted with hypotheticals of specific people or ones that don't yet exist.

Fuck this reality. Fuck the reduction of humanity because of the will of those that hate others. We need to deal with now and our idea of what matters.

Why does the law allow this? Where in from you can write whatever the fuck you want on a contract but it doesn't make it legal. If the shit in the contract is insane , a court would just refuse to enforce it

Inb4 a few decades down the line "Father blocked from suing Amazon after their death squads gunned down his entire family for sharing his prime video account, say they agreed to Amazon terms"

Anarchists used to blow up corporate buildings for this shit when government failed to keep these sociopaths in line'

Corporations these days need more fear of behaving like this: Courts need to stop allowing this shit. Legislators need to ban these practices. Prosecutors need to sue these companies to force courts to rule on this bullshit.

Uber was taking notes from Disney.

Another reason to avoid uber of any sort.

So they were in an Uber, and ordered food on Uber eats, then the Uber driver crashed? Did I read that right?

Uber looked at Disney and thought "hmm yummy, get us some of those sweet backlashes".

I don't think we are ordering Uber taxis anymore

This should be illegal, all these companies want to make money with 0 risk to them. Get em out of NJ!
