Sony are even more egregious - unless you opt out within 30 days, you are subject to Binding Arbitration via the Sony EULA for example.
This means you have to settle Disputes between you and Sony through a neutral private arbitrator rather than a judge or jury in a public courtroom, and you give up the right to participate in any class-action tort.
Doesn't sound neutral at all.
Third party and independent means an arbritartor who isn't vastly paid by one industry.
Seems like that should be a right you can’t waive no matter what a contract says
