Question about TOS

A customer agrees to a TOS that states "No reviews, negative or positive, can be posted anywhere for any reason"

Customer has a horrible experience.

Can the artist then sue the customer if such a review was ever posted?

Yes, that's a horrible TOS, I have no idea why anyone would ever agree to it, but should the customer just let it go for fear of being sued or is it a baseless threat.

Yeah I'm pretty sure that if large companies with lots of legal power could enforce this, they would. As is I think the best they can do is to get people to sign a contract when they give them hush up money, like after an iPod blows up in someone's face.

Or a Samsung!

But I agree wholeheartedly with this comment.
