anybody else come to terms with majority of executives in our industry being sadistic creeps that don't care about their workers and care even less about people interacting with their products?

In the end they removed them once the contract expired. But it got me curious, is there no way to get out of a contract once signed? I know contracts have breach clauses and stuff, but if the college paid up front is there literally no way for them to breach the contract after that? Hiring security to physically block the Flock people from uncovering the cameras?
