That was something Disney Lawyers claimed, but was never actually agreed/enforced.
Disney backed down. They still believe they have that right, and no court has ever said they didn’t, but the bad publicity was too much for them in this case. They’ll wait until there’s a case that doesn’t get that kind of publicity before they try to establish that precedent.
many “normal” EULA’s aren’t really binding, if you get down to it.
Also. Relevant XKCD
Tell that to the people who just got denied the ability to sue over an Uber crash because their daughter agreed to the Uber eats eula
Or the family of the person who died at Disney and can’t sue because they did a free trial of Disney+

So it doesn’t actually hold any weight until a court actually rules on it.

Disney waved their right to arbitration after backlash. Uber might just do the same, or get sued by the government for the EULA itself.

Technically that’s still on appeal, and tbh I do expect it to get overturned somewhere.
