What the terms actually say

Section 17 — Dispute Resolution

You agree that any Dispute between us shall be resolved exclusively in individual (non-class) arbitration. The parties intend to be bound to the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. § 1 et seq. An arbitration means there will be no jury, and no judge.

You cannot sue the company in court; you must use a private arbitrator, and you cannot join a class action lawsuit.

Section 8 — Who Owns the Services?

you grant Coca‑Cola ... the unrestricted, perpetual, worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, fully-paid right and license (and right to sublicense through multiple tiers) to use, host, store, reproduce, modify, publicly display, perform, translate, distribute and otherwise disclose to third parties your User Content

Anything you post or submit becomes effectively owned by Coca-Cola to use however they want, forever, without paying you.

Section 13 — Limitations on Coca-Cola’s Liability

IN NO EVENT WILL THE COCA-COLA PARTIES’ TOTAL LIABILITY TO YOU ... EXCEED IN THE AGGREGATE ONE HUNDRED UNITED STATES DOLLARS ($100.00).
