This case is quite similar with Disney+ case.

You press 'Agree', you lost the right to sue the company.

Well, that is exactly what happens in the vast majority of cases, and almost certainly what's going to happen here.

That's not to undercut how shitty a practice it is, it mostly serves to discourage and dissuade people from trying to sue in the first place.
