>In enacting the Consumer Review Fairness Act, Congress has also prohibited businesses from including contract terms that prohibit consumers from reviewing products or services they purchase.

[IANAL] if that is true i wonder whether PA Networks exposes itself to counter suit as i think i know at least one similar (in my layman view) case where inclusion and enforcement of a contract provision violating a specific consumer law protection provision was a ground for successful class action. In such a case one doesn't even need to actually fight the legal battle themselves, just show it to lawyers with time to spare, and even just mentioning such possibility may be enough on its own.
