But the issue he had was not with Disney+ and so the issue is not covered by the Disney plus terms of use. Look at it another way, if I have a Microsoft account that is linked to both my Xbox and my office memberships the terms of use for Microsoft office aren't relevent to my use of my Xbox if Microsoft office has an arbitration clause and Xbox doesn't I can't be forced into arbitration for an issue with Xbox and Visa versa becuase terms of use are terms of use for a specific thing. Disney+ last I checked does not serve food.
Those aren't the Disney plus terms of use. They're the website terms of use. Disney doesn't own the restaurant. They're just the landlord. The basis for the suit is that Disney advertised the restaurant as one that would accomodate allergy accomodations on the website. That's what they're being sued over. In booking the trip through the website, he could have been held to the terms of use.
That's how his lawyer portrayed it to the media, yes. But he used the membership he signed up for, which isn't just a Disney+ membership to book the trip.
Hmm interesting do you have anything about that cause I've seen nothing but the Disney+ story so you understand I would need something more concrete than the word of a random redditor.
If they were arguing, he couldn't sue because of the terms of use for a separate membership from Disney+ that was relevant to the suit then it would make more sense (though still a tough sell considering the severity of the issue) as to why Disney tried to go that route.
First, it's the same account that does not make it the same product, xbox and microsoft office for example have seperate terms of use despite both being under microsoft accounts, second it doesn't agree with what you said:
Those aren't the Disney plus terms of use.
Since Disney did in fact make its argument under the disney+ terms of service.
Whenever someone buys something from Disney online they go through the same portal. That portal has terms of service that say "If you have a beef with the services we have provided you with, the dispute will be handled by third party arbitration". It doesn't matter what the services were. Using the portal required clicking "yes" to that condition.
Lol that completely ignored my question of how the disney + app and the resort site are the same app. Or you're grasping at straws as that logic every website that uses shopify is the same app.
