As I said, I don't know US law. But I studied Swiss law which is quite similar to the law of other European countries. Even though Apple is a large company and sometimes behaves as if they are above the law, their subsidiaries are still subject to the laws of their respective countries. The clauses in their contracts that violate applicable national law are invalid.

Would such a clause be legally permitted in Switzerland?
You can write in a contract whatever you want; it's permitted to sign invalid contracts; but it's the court which decides on the nature of the contract and interprets the will of the parties; the court will disable illegal clauses and replace them by default law.
