I think it’s also important to think about what it’s not. It’s not something that can happen to a company, so no one with deep pockets will be able to go after big tech. It’ll open up the potential for people to sue, but that’s just a matter of throwing a tiny amount of money around around if anyone is dumb enough to think they can win a lawsuit against a big tech company.

Interesting perspective and point.

Is there a potential risk there for companies with class action suits? Or will the arbitration clauses/class action waivers found in terms of services prevent that from happening?
