Personally, I'd like for it to be illegal to force people into TOSes which add binding arbitration to access their accounts and data once they've already time and money into the system otherwise. I shouldn't be negatively impacted regarding my rights to data or damages just because you were careless with my data. Likewise, any explicit agreement to legal remedy should really be in its own independent section for users to approve.

Personally I'd like for binding arbitration to be unenforceable period. It's a hack to work around the laws of the country by preventing people from availing themselves of this and should be treated as such.
