Forced arbitration means any legal disputes you may have with Discord must be resolved through a single third party mediator, who 99% of the time is chosen by, and will rule in favor of, the corporation/Discord. This effectively removes all your legal rights as a consumer, because arbitration decisions are legally binding and non-appealable.
The new ToS goes into effect April 15th, 2024.
YOU CAN OPT OUT OF ARBITRATION. You must email [email protected] BEFORE MAY 15TH (30 days after ToS effective date) with your username stating that you wish to opt out of the arbitration clause. Once May 15th passes you are bound to arbitration with Discord forever.
Opt-out before it’s too late.
Just give me a snippet to file a consumer protection application. It’ll get struct down
A what protection… That’s not a real thing, and if you rely on abusive daddy and his magic hammer to save you, you’re going to be so fucked.
Just stop using it. Get your friends to stop using it. Ditch this garbage. This isnt even the biggest reason to do that anyway.
The Supreme Court of Canada ruled that these types of forced arbitration violates my province’s Consumer Protection Act
Okay, even if government magically does something decent and fair and good for people at the expense of corporations, and unicorn cum tastes like cotton candy and makes you immortal
Not an excuse to keep using that shit. Punish then yourself, additionally. they deserve it for even trying thus. Arguably more, if its blatantly illegal. Switch all your crap to matrix or whatever.
