no, i can't.
here in canada, rogers.com's EULA states you give up your rights in court if you agree to subscribe to their service.
i'd bet many american isp's have similar clauses.
what does unlimited mean? it means whatever my isp tells me it means.
what does class action mean? false hope. |

Dont know about you canucks but here in the states EULAs can be challenged. Who the hell reads that crap anyways?? There will always be one crooked lawyer that will sue for anything and he just might win....... |

1) It's impossible to sigh your rights away in this country.
2) Even the "arbitration cluase" doesn't prevent law suits against neglegent actions.
4) The EULA, as called here, the TOS actually, imposes certain rights upong the end user. However, that same TOS does not apply to the state AG's office if they feel gross misconduct on the part of the ISP. There are many things that the TOS does not protect the company from the general public.
and finally, class action means that the lead attorny get's rich, the lead plaintiffs get a descent amount of meny, and the class memebers get a certificate good for 1 free hamburger. |

It is commons for big corporations (read: Rogers) to put lines like that into their TOSes and EULAs to scare users into not challenging them in court, even though they still have every legal right to do so. Ultimately, a contract is only as good as the judge who is determining who breached it.
