Hi I commented in the [Formation sub,](https://www.reddit.com/r/formation/comments/17155jl/comment/k3or36f/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3) with a thorough reply in the context of Formation and how we feel about the contract. In the context of bootcamps, I'll share some other examples of this kind of thing. I do not think "this is the standard" is a good justification and ultimately you need to feel comfortable and confident with what you are signing.
