Oh, I see: trial by jury. (Or is it more like the court of public opinion?)

I wonder how well that'll work out. Will those automatically-selected "other users" really be able to grasp the legal and contractual issues adequately to resolve a detailed technical dispute?

devil is in the details. you would need highly skilled and experienced arbitrators here for each vertical.
