I'll be cancelling my Disney bundle subscription after this. I seriously hope they get billions from Disney after this. Nothing I hate more than companies trying to abuse arbitration clauses. No one in their right mind would think Disney+ subscription would impact their legal rights at a park. Now I know why Disney+/Hulu/etc moved to a MyDisney account. It was because of shenanigans like this where they wanted to try to make a contract that applies to every Disney property imaginable.

You might want to re-read that... This is saying they signed up for a 1-month free trial in 2019. It sounds like they haven't even had a subscription for the last 5 years but the lawyers are still trying to argue that it applies.

Yes I know this. They include terms that automatically adapts all new agreements too. Even if 5 years ago they didn't have as broad of a contract, businesses constantly update their terms to strengthen and expand stripping away consumer rights.

Sorry. You already entered into the contract. You signed. Anyway, I'm not here for the arbitration. I'm here for you puppy Max. In the contract, in fine letters, it clearly says that if you do happen to acquire a puppy via gift, birth or otherwise monetary exchange, Disney has the right to use said animal for the new Lion King the ride movie. So anyway, can we please take a look at the specimen? We got some invasive tests we'd like to run now.
