If the second-to-last box at the bottom had an honest message from the company:
“Did you know you could do all this in a way that’s cheaper for us while we continue to charge you the same price that we keep raising inexplicably so that we make more money? Just go to w-w-w dot…”



I’d be in favour of a law that prohibits illegal items in terms of service with some massive punishments associated to them. Something like 0.01% of total annual revenue per line item that is illegal per affected customer. You put a law like that into place and you’d find that terms of service would tighten up and become much more reasonable VERY quickly. The revenue gathered from such fines could fund an enforcement agency that receives complaints/reports to investigate and then starts proactively searching through existing terms of service for products. Pay bonuses to employees for each breach found to incentivise the proactive work that funds the agency. Long term it would be zero cost to the taxpayer and would enforce end users’ rights at the same time.
