Well, all certifying for class action means is that even if it *is* stupid, we may as well litigate it once for everybody and get it over with. There's probably more legal issues under the covers - for instance, whether there was any way to *leave* the program once you had signed up for it. <cue Young Frankenstein clip> "No matter what I say, don't open the door..."
