Paper shields- being asked to sign something that is vague and broad. The idea is that it is broad enough to cover anything and everything, and so is expected to be broken. But as long as you don’t do anything egregious, they don’t enforce it.
It’s not a shield, it’s a whip. Something to threaten to beat you with if you get uppity. Or if they just feel like it. It’s not whether you do something egregious, it’s the threat of beating you generally to control you, and the added power to beat you when they find it in their interest.

We could imagine an actual shield, designed so they can get away with anything. Like, “you agree to not ever sue us”.
However, such shields have spikes. If you can’t sue them, you lose leverage, and they can get away with hitting you with the shield…
