Nobody reads privacy policies, senator wants lawmakers to stop pretending we do
If one party to a contract cannot reasonably expect (!) that the contract was read by the other party, the contract should be invalid. Period, end of story.<p>This applies not just to Privacy Policies, but to just about every Terms of Service. You&#x27;re telling me that when Apple updates the App Store&#x27;s terms of use, they <i>in good faith</i> expect their customers to spend half their workday rereading the contract before clicking I Agree and downloading that new app? It&#x27;s completely nonsensical!<p>Only high-level business software should be able to force its users to sign a contract, because that is the only circumstance in which it will be read.
