People underestimate how important it is to read terms of websites you’re signing up to. This can be life changing in some situations, and not in a good way! In fact, I’d say it’s about as important as reading any other real life contract.
But I do agree, it’s pretty hard to keep up with terms.. particularly if you pull out online contracts like Google’s terms which take you probably at least 15 minutes to read and at the end of the page you aren’t sure you understand the entirety of it. I think they make the contracts so long partially because they know we won’t read it, lol.
Updates to terms are obviously important. But who the heck keeps up with all of that….
