| May 3, 2018 at 14:24 | comment | added | hvd | Thanks for the clarification. I'll hold off on posting my own answer on that because most likely, you'll already get a much better answer from someone far more knowledgeable than myself, but if it takes too long I'll make an effort to put what I've pieced together so far into an answer. | |

| May 3, 2018 at 14:15 | comment | added | Adriaan | @hvd ah, it's meant in a broad sense. Either because of data leaks, or because SE starts harassing its users off-site in a manner affecting lots of users, I don't want to actually have to board a flight to New York to get inside their head quarters being slammed down by their lawyers on their turf and rules. I'd like to be able to sign up to a larger lawsuit where people who are actually knowledgeable about this fly to New York and do the actual court case for me and all others affected. | |
| May 3, 2018 at 14:08 | comment | added | hvd | Sorry for not being clear enough. I thought that what was suggested on Meta was that SE's GDPR's requirements apply even if the arbitration clause would suggest otherwise. In my example, harassment is covered by completely different laws, unrelated to the GDPR, so the answer could be different. | |
| May 3, 2018 at 14:05 | comment | added | Adriaan | @hvd I'm not sure what you mean. I'm no lawyer, hence I barely understand the arbitration clause, but it reads to me that if SE does anything which is bad for its users, the users cannot collectively complain in court. It is suggested in answers and comments on the meta announcing the new ToS that arbitration clauses are in conflict with the GDPR, hence I'm asking about whether I, as an EU citizen, should be concerned about trying to opt-out (which I want), or that the EU law already covers me in that sense. | |
| May 3, 2018 at 14:02 | comment | added | hvd | Are you asking only about arbitration in relation to GDPR, or arbitration in general? Unrealistic example: SE employees conspiring to harass users. Is your question meant to cover that too, or should I ask that as a new question? (I think your question doesn't currently cover it, but I'm not sure if that's intentional.) | |
