      The government that I pay taxes to doesn’t allow this sort of abusive clause either. However, this is a lot like Nestlé’s slavery chocolate: it’s still harming someone in the world, and the business is showing signs that it would gladly do it against us if allowed to do so.

        Yep, government needs to regulate businesses.

        But in this particular case I would suggest the judge “asks” whoever signed off on this lawsuit to come to court and sentence that person and the lawyer to 60 days hard labor, just for thinking of the heinous use of this clause.

        Besides that, clauses that extend beyond the duration of a contract should also be heavily regulated.
