Since when has a contract stopped a powerful enough lawyer?

Yeah, as I understand it, and I am not in the slightest a lawyer, you can't actually, in practice, have a contract that makes signatories unable to seek legal restitution. It happens a lot that people TRY to, and render them practically immune from small-time prosecution, but in the same way the Spotify ToS that says "and you agree to give the CEO of Spotify all your possessions lol gottem" would not be legally enforceable, you can't have a contract that says "You agree that it's okay for us to break the law."

Of course, a lot of these cases end up pretty vague and decided in court, so individual cases can vary.
