    I resolved to never give Epic a dime when I got a popup forcing me to agree to a binding arbitration agreement in order to launch games I already have installed and in my library. It tells me that they think people will have good reasons to sue them in the future.

      You can send a snail mail to opt out, which is scummy at best, but technically you can opt out.

        This is what’s known as a dark pattern and is the exact thing the US government is suing Adobe over.

        Making service cancellation or opt-out deliberately difficult is exploitative and something that should be illegal. Any company that does it doesn’t deserve a cent from you.
