Stupid British Toy Company turns out to be malevolent. The reveal? The NDA exposed over the last week. Arch cut two videos on this, the latter being today's release.
As I have said previously, the corporate world is formerly the domain of the Mammon Mob--the cult focused on the Biblical figure become iconic of obsessive greed--with the Molech-aligned Death Cult being the interlopers here.
This NDA is something the Mammon Mobsters do far more than the Death Cult, though the latter are swift and cunning adopters of successful tactics. They prey--and "prey" is the right word here--upon the naivete and easy-going nature of their targets to trap them into these contracts. As Arch notes, these are wholly unreasonable contracts that should be put to legal scrutiny. The next step is to put this before YouTube's law commentary community--Hoeg Law already has--and put more attention to it.
Coupled with this is to report this to the proper authorities in your country. This will not generate instant responses; the California civil suit against the Irvine Game Company came after two years of investigation, and that it turn didn't happen until there were enough complaints to push them to do it. Social media outrage storms will not push Officialdom to move faster, but consistent pressure applied via official channels coupled with persistent public attention to this matter can get these slow-moving bodies to turn about and gaze upon the British Toy Company.
Even then, don't expect successful remedy. However, Arch's recommendation of informing the shareholders of this action is not useless; this is the sort of thing that got Bobby Kotick into trouble with the U.S. Federal Trade Commission, as he (and other senior management in that company's corporate structure both in the main company and in the Irvine subsidiary) did actions that materially affected the stock price and thus shareholder value- the FTC's purview.
You'll note that I'm avoiding naming the company. This is mostly due to be adhering to the core of #BrandZero, but in this case it's also to avoid unwanted attention from bad actors like Ego Regent A-Mob who like to point-and-shriek to weaponize SJW swarms on their enemies and anyone else that draws their ire. Word of this deserves to be spread, but the reality of outrage marketing still applies; word your commentary carefully to minimize risk in public, and save explicit identification for private communications.
