针对本次对上海迪士尼乐园的诉讼让迪士尼公司尽受指责,因为同样的规定(禁止携带食品入园)不适用于欧美的的迪士尼乐园。
The student, surnamed Wang, says she had her "rights violated" after being barred from bringing in her own meal, forcing her to buy "overpriced" food inside the park.
这位王姓同学说,禁止自己的食物而不得不买园内“高价”食物,她的权利遭到了“侵犯”。

这种“大卫和歌利亚”式挑战法律上了微博热搜,中文标签是“迪士尼因禁止自带食品和饮料而被起诉”,吸引了6亿多浏览量和数万条评论。
"Many people may also feel that their rights have been violated, but (they) did not sue due to the time involved. As law students, (it) is our duty," Wang told online media The Paper.
王同学接受澎湃网采访道,“许多人都有类似的侵权经历,但是他们往往因为时间关系不会去起诉。作为法学学生,维权我们义不容辞。”
