This case is quite similar with Disney+ case.

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

This is fucked. But I have a question. Why does Uber need to bother relying on the daughter’s agreement with Uber Eats? Surely the parents as Uber ride share users already agreed to similar terms no? Is this their way of testing this in court to see how far they can push it and set a precedent?

    their daughter clicked “agree” when presented with updated terms and conditions while ordering food via her mom’s Uber Eats account.

    Yes but wouldn’t the parents already have agreed to such terms when they first signed up for Uber, long before their daughter clicked to accept the updated terms on Uber Eats (which presumably is a different app.)
