I really don't know how they don't understand the very simple concept that you can't force someone into a contract.

But it was nice of him to not charge a fee to keep people updated, I guess.

When you understand something so well, that you now overstand it, to the point it's taking up too much brain real estate.

If you have not watched Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt, you'll enjoy it.

But the gubment forced us into a contract of indentured servitude under the social security gold standard emancipation proclamation​!

I was forced into free agent indentured servitude by virtue of being born without capital.

It's all based on the articles of confederation or wtv where it was a bit more free and wild, people had these kinds of rules and contracts between them. Nothing like this of course.

Basically they think an old government piece of paper that has wording they prefer outweighs the government piece of paper they don't. (The one they don't have to pay for, but still get alll the benefits).

"By your performance, we mutally agree". "It is now effective due to their performance."

Is "performance" some kind of magic word? On the surface, and also under the surface, this doesn't make any sense.

It's all magic words with SovCits.

You can, but there's relative limits on it. Basically every ToS does this.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago

No, you still have to agree to the ToS. They can't force you. All they can do is say that you cannot access the software or service if you don't agree to it. No one can force you to agree to a contract. That's just not how contract law works.
