On the EULA topic, I would think the thing is that certain rights should not be possible to waive at all, or at least not without a personalised exemption and legal document notarised by a witness. Certainly not via some boilerplate pop-up that comes up when you login to an app or website.

There is generally speaking no situation in which it makes sense for a contract to require someone to waive some of their labour rights, their legal protections, their right to litigation or compensation for malfeasance, so on and so forth. For the extremely rare situation where these sorts of things are actually warranted, the agreement should be gone through in detail beforehand to ensure that both parties know what is being agreed to.

With a head like a block
he went out for a sock,
his ass I won't bother to save.
