Even when consent is informed it can still be fucky. Do you think I want to consent to an arbitration agreement with my employer or a social media platform? Fuck no, but I want a job and interaction so I go where the money/people are. I can’t hunt around for a place that will hire me and also doesn’t have arbitration.
Consent at the barrel of a gun, No matter how well informed, is no consent at all.

This is a great point. Manufactured consent and all.
In many countries mandatory arbitration agreements in a B2C context are invalid. They have no legal power.
