Yes, please.
I've noticed two companies recently going beyond the typical binding arbitration clause by laying out a less formal "pre-arbitration" step in their dispute resolution process. One of them includes this gem, which to me reads rather customer-hostile:
You and [Us] wish to promptly and fully resolve any
dispute arising in connection with these Terms of
Service in good faith, confidentially, and
informally with minimal transaction costs. Neither
You nor [Us] may make any public statement regarding
any such dispute and/or the existence of any such
dispute except as otherwise expressly provided in
this Section 11.
So if I complain about the service on Twitter due to some problem I'm having, and then I attempt to start resolving the dispute, am I penalized because I made public statements?
Hulu also[1] lays out a pre-arbitration process, but it seems less confrontational.
