It should be illegal to "sign away" legal protections that you're afforded under the law.
- Zigurd 11y agoIt probably should not be uniformly illegal. For example, settling a lawsuit generally involves promising not to sue. Perhaps such agreements need to be supervised, which would take them out of the domain of "click-through" contracts.
- fineman 11y agoThat's not even an important requirement though. If you settle a lawsuit and then sue anyways the judge can look at the original issue and the aftermath and choose to throw it out as you have been compensated at that point.
- TheCoelacanth 11y agoYou aren't agreeing not to sue them so much as agreeing that you have been adequately compensated for the damages that they did to you.
