The entertainment giant says the terms of a free trial prevent it from being sued for wrongful death.

Disney World is arguing a man cannot sue it over the death of his wife because of terms he signed up to in a free trial of Disney+.

It says Mr Piccolo agreed to these terms of use when he signed up to a one month free trial of its streaming service, Disney+, in 2019.

    They’ve definitely crunched the numbers and figured out this method is cheaper than a settlement, and in a country like the US, they’ll definitely get away with it.

      No numbers…they would easily spend 4x as much to defend their arbitration bullshit then actually pay out the guys demands.

      It’s a dick waving contest and Disney wants the world to see their dick. Nothing more.
