You've already given up your right to sue.  It's time to take it back.

Consumers across the globe face an alarming issue concealed within the verbose and often incomprehensible terms of service agreements that accompany the purchase of many products and services. Arbitration clauses, hidden deep within these documents, deny customers the ability to pursue legal action in court, forcing them instead into private arbitration. This process is often biased in favor of corporations and strips consumers of their right to a fair trial. It's time to bring an end to this unconscionable practice by demanding transparency and the option to opt-out.

Arbitration was originally intended to be a streamlined and equitable dispute resolution process. However, empirical studies have demonstrated that arbitration often disproportionately benefits big corporations at the expense of individual consumers. The Economic Policy Institute found that fewer than 1 in 10,000 of consumers prevail in arbitration compared to lawsuits, where plaintiffs win 58% of the cases. This shows a stark imbalance in outcomes and highlights the oppressive nature of forced arbitration.

Currently, multinational corporations like Amazon, Apple, and many others include arbitration clauses in their terms of service, leaving consumers with little choice but to agree to these terms or leave empty-handed. The lack of awareness and understanding of these clauses perpetuates a cycle of power inequality, with the consumer having little to no negotiating power.

We, therefore, urge major corporations to amend their terms of service and provide a clear, accessible option for consumers to opt-out of arbitration. By doing so, they would uphold consumer rights and ensure a more balanced system where individuals can choose the manner in which their disputes are resolved.

Join us in this crucial movement to restore fairness and choice to consumers everywhere. Demand that corporations allow the option to opt-out of arbitration and support the establishment of a fairer consumer-business relationship. Sign this petition to make your voice heard and effect change. Together, we can establish a more transparent and just marketplace for all.
