I read this in my inbox and uninstalled Zed. It's not my main editor though.

Terrible rule, even if effectively unenforceable.

Judging from the opt out section and other parts of the ToS it seems pretty clear to me that most of the terms only apply (including the arbitration clause) to if you're using their online services. I don't get what the big hooha is about

#8Binding arbitration is the most sure fired sign of an organization that hates its users and is fully against the rule of law and the rights of consumers. What a deeply disappointing development.
I’d rather an organization kick puppies and kidnap babies than implement binding / opt OUT arbitration. I’m so irritated by this. It is the first major misstep by the organization and unfortunately makes you about as honorable as Microsoft.
Absolutely galled.
I hope there will be a hard fork that is properly maintained and doesn’t hate its users.

I suspect this is because minors cannot normally be legally bound by contracts they sign.
