    A scenario is pretty simple: They don’t hire enough security personnel to safeguard your data. They get hacked. There is very little damages you could get in arbitration for losing that data, so nothing happens. You cannot form a class to actually make something happen.

      What data? The fake email I made up with a made up name to play a game they don’t know much about? I don’t understand how this applies.

        You said your kid uses discord? So you’re completely fine with all of their messages being fair share for anyone to view, and you having no say in the matter?

          Where is that happening? The claim is that you have to go to arbitration rather than court. Nothing says that their information is anywhere other than discord.

          And if your question is that my kid is giving out information, he’s not. I look at all his messages and he is fully aware from coaching with my friends and family to not give any sensitive information out to anyone under any circumstances.

          He uses to game. Just as I do.
