@EverydayMoggie @Ivovanwilligen why be like this? They made something useful. Who do you know who ever reads the Ts&Cs? If you do, you're in a small minority. Maybe uplift instead of coming down on people for everything.

In fact, I do read all the details before signing up for anything. Everybody should, especially now, because the stakes are a lot higher than they used to be.

The problem is, for most people they need the service they are registering with (or at least think they do). Not signing is not an option, so what’s the point of reading the small print?
For example, I want the security updates on my iPhone. I have to click ‘accept’ to get them. The alternative is effectively to brick my phone.
It’s a scandal, and law makers the world over are not getting a grip.

@KimSJ @EverydayMoggie @noodlemaz @Ivovanwilligen Not everyone has the time to read and understand the details and implications of what's written.
Governments should hold those companies accountable and protect our privacy.

So you want someone else to do the work for you?
Exactly why we are in this mess to begin with.
Your protection is YOUR JOB first and foremost.

Disagree. Victims blaming is a sophisticated mechanism of moving regulatory responsibility away from centralised and well resourced organizations in the government and company and distributing it amongst the poorly resourced and fragmented general public.
This Victorian attitude is unwise and unsound.
