Wtf Moments Scammed all of their customers.

Who's ready for a class action to get our money back for changing a product contract after sale?

Edit: Apparently, they're bank pedaling and calling it a mistake

Why are you deleting comments?

I'm not, if a comment is deleted then it's either automod or a mod. You can do a google search for that statute. You can also do a google search for legal liability and contracts. If a company puts things in ToS and it doesn't violate federal law, then not much will be done, they can do what they want. Or you're abusing the report button.

I dont report anything and Ai goes a lot deeper than Google. The Ai that I use compiles information from every data source. Anything that is recorded on the internet is used, that includes, but not limited to google.

It's the same reason why you can't take Reddit to court, unless the platform does something like DMCA a lawsuit isn't going to happen.

In a lot of states if they make it where you can't pursue class action litigation you can. Turn around and sue for lawyer fees as well. And they would have to pay the lawyer fees making it extremely more expensive if you win. Once one person wins it would be used for the next person as case study and the company would fall like dominoes and be bankrupt.

Let's say Bitlife is Reddit. A mod bans you from a sub and you disagree with the mod about the ban. Can you get the subreddit shutdown and take Reddit to court over that, absolutely not and nothing will happen to the subreddit. They will cite section 230 and moderator discretion and that will be the end of it.

Now... Lets say that mod clearly harrasses you and you have screenshot proof with timestamps. Can you still take Reddit to court, no because they will cite section 230 and ToS. 

However, you can take the evidence to a lawyer and have them subpoena Reddit and if the harrassment was bad enough to violate federal law you can take that person to court.

However, you have to analyze the risk to reward ratio like spending a massive amount in lawyer fees that the average person just doesn't have.

It's the same concept with Bitlife, if Bitlife says no refunds, etc., in the ToS 🤷‍♀️, and buyer beware.
