This phrase is commonly used in both American and Brazilian legal and business contexts. In Brazil, consumer protection laws (Código de Defesa do Consumidor) explicitly address unreasonable conditions in contracts. The concept is central to labor disputes and tenant-landlord negotiations in both countries. In NYC, this term is frequently invoked in contract negotiations and worker advocacy contexts.
