Noticed this update got pushed just now.

Edit: Seems they’re doing this to prevent costs from arbitration.

What does it mean? Also, does it affect everyone or just the US; because I did not see a popup about it in the EU.

Forced arbitration is already unenforceable in the EU, so it doesn't change anything for you. It just makes it so it works for the rest of the world the same way it already did for you.
