They own a lot. They have 20 property holding companies, and only a few are obviously owned by Disney, not sure if that also carries to the businesses on all of those properties. It is possible someone could be on Disney owned property, and thus caught under the Disney+ agreement, without knowing it.
I also suspect it won’t be upheld, with Disney’s ever growing footprint, some of these mega companies become harder and harder to ignore.

- caddemon 2y agoFair enough, I knew they owned a lot of entertainment/media related companies but didn't realize they owned additional properties that weren't explicitly advertised as such. Though in the case of Disney Springs they actually don't own the restaurant, just the property, so I'm not sure what liability they have regardless of this motion. If Disney technically owns the property but independent operators are involved, Disney isn't really the right party to bring a suit against anyway (though obviously they are large and people tend to file broad lawsuits).
