Re: Sheer stupidity on Comcast's part

I think the insurance companies are doing a bang-up job of drawing attention to this all by themselves, but Comcast certainly should know better. Sadly, they are doing the same "opt-out" scheme used by spammers and telemarketers to erode customers' legal rights. I guess I shouldn't be too surprised.

With all the media light being shed on this, they are just asking for legislation to invalidate every single one of the arbitration clauses.
The Washington Supreme Court did just that with respect to class action lawsuits.

If it is found that arbitration is not the un-biased forum that it claims to be, they could find themselves in a worse situation than before. Imagine if any contract with an arbitration company violates the law because of a perceived sense of bias. This would be the end of arbitration.
