The waiver prevents users from pooling claims with others, which limits collective leverage and may make it economically impractical to pursue small individual claims.
Interpretive note: The clause also imposes the individual-capacity requirement on claims brought by Pinecone, which was not stated as the canonical claim as the primary effect on users is the restriction on their own claims.
