for those not on twitter here’s dantdm’s response to “lunchly”
Hi Icarus my friend and mutual Icarus! What
okay so yeah his biggest one rn is the 68 million lawsuit because from my understanding he’d asked the manufacturer for his drink brand (apparently co-owned by KSI? which makes this deal worse) for a fuckton of custom bottles with an agreed upfront payment for the order. the drink didn’t end up being as profitable as expected and logan’s side tried pulling out, now the manufacturer is suing essentially for all the time and resources they’d spent.
the same drink was (is?) also being sued for copyright infringement by the olympic committee because they (ALLEGEDLY) used olympic symbols/slogans without permission.
he also sued (is suing? again i’m unsure if the claims have all been settled but this is Fairly Recent) another creator, coffeezilla, for calling out his bullshit crypto scam. notably logan chose the ONE state where he could actually make this claim because it’s so batshit and groundless no other court of law would even bother picking it up.
update not only have i been informed that there is at least 9 different lawsuits against logan paul and ksi’s drink company, but the beast games lawsuit literally just dropped with claims of sexual assault and starving their contestants, among other charges. so really a stellar lineup that definitely cares about the general public’s health and well-being over profit we’ve got here
genuinely if i was an investor and saw these three walk into a room together the looming certain doom of millions of dollars in lawsuits would kill me instantly. there’s no way this isn’t fully out of pocket on their ends no sane person would put their money into this. this is an investor’s nightmare. i have never seen a more guaranteed future lawsuit since. well. the beast games.
i feel like they have also sensed this bc this is on the lunchly website !
i’m like 99% sure that is no legally binding in the Slightest but jesus christ. are they making you sign terms and conditions over Shitty Lunchables That Give You Cancer
for further clarification class action wavers are already pretty iffy (legal, but most courts will Not give a shit about them except for Specific Circumstances) but they’re doubly not legally binding when you’re not given any way of opting out. they cannot smile dog you into being like “oh you saw this waver/should’ve seen this waver so you can’t sue us now” it’s just intimidation to keep people who don’t know enough about law to sue them (because they are obviously expecting lawsuits already LMAO)
