It is a scam to get people to sign away their rights to sue the bastards.
- dalanmiller 9y agoShit. I already submitted and should've read the fine print. I need to un-enroll.
- Multicomp 9y agoIf you look at the site ToS you can send an opt out to arbitration by mail to them within 30 days, at least for the Equifax general ToS
- hysan 9y agoCan anyone with a legal background or have connections to news outlets validate this? I read through the terms and this really does seem to be the case. However, I am certainly not in a position to decide this. It would alleviate my concerns if a trusted source could publicly report on how the impacted (pretty much everyone in the US) should respond to leak.
- ghughes 9y agoIANAL, but I'm not sure that you are correct. The agreement refers to claims "arising from or relating to the subject matter of this Agreement or the Products", and the title of the agreement is "TrustedID Premier Terms of Use". Doesn't that mean you're waiving your right to sue TrustedID, Inc. in a class action for grievances related to the TrustedID monitoring product, not your right to sue Equifax for the data breach?
- rdiddly 9y agoAha, that explains why the site works so hard to gather your info and then suddenly loses interest in doing anything much else! Shit I hope I don't miss out on like $3.37 of class-action BOUNTY!
