Forced arbitration means any legal disputes you may have with Discord must be resolved through a single third party mediator, who 99% of the time is chosen by, and will rule in favor of, the corporation/Discord. This effectively removes all your legal rights as a consumer, because arbitration decisions are legally binding and non-appealable.
The new ToS goes into effect April 15th, 2024.
YOU CAN OPT OUT OF ARBITRATION. You must email [email protected] BEFORE MAY 15TH (30 days after ToS effective date) with your username stating that you wish to opt out of the arbitration clause. Once May 15th passes you are bound to arbitration with Discord forever.
Opt-out before it’s too late.
Rather the opposite.
Every business selling to EU citizens, is required to charge them the corresponding VAT, then forward it to the citizen’s country. Doing otherwise, would be tax evasion.
If they closed shop, they’d risk getting hit with import duties, or directly get blocked in the EU. Not following EU’s rules, would get them hit with fines, which they’d have to choose to either pay, or get their shop closed down, with the same consequences.
I know the US likes to tax its citizens even when they don’t reside in the US, but most countries like to tax anyone residing or doing business on their territory.
I meant NL is one of the top 10 tax havens in the world due to their exemptions that allow corporate tax evasion.
