Nope.
You have to understand they are two types of contracts. Negociated contracts which hold more value in courts and the ones of adhesion which you have no power over and they are ruled in the favour of the customer.

The reasons the court gave for holding the EULA procedurally unconscionable apply to most EULAs. Even though the arbitration term was fully disclosed to consumers, the contract was one of "adhesion": an agreement imposed and drafted by the party with superior bargaining strength, which gave the consumer only the opportunity to accept or reject the contract, not to freely negotiate it. As a result, the customer's unequal bargaining power results in an absence of meaningful choice. The fact that the customers could choose a different carrier may mitigate, but not cure, the procedural unconscionability.

Just read up on abusive contracts and it will make more sense.
