Reading Responses

I found Insiders Edition, “Social Experiment Proves That No One Really Reads Terms and Conditions” to be really fascinating because I can’t think of one time where I have truly read the terms and conditions in full. Though this is definitely something that I have thought about before I was just never bothered enough to do anything about it. I believe this to be caused by a certain level of placed laziness. I say placed because no one wants to spend the next two hours reading what they are agreeing to by getting on Facebook or setting up their new iPhone and that’s how they want you to react. Then they can get you to agree to whatever terms in conditions that they wish to apply.

That being said I think this video really proves that point. That you don’t know what you are getting into. They could have you sign away your first-born child or agree to foster one as they did in the video and you would. Though this definitely raised a certain level of concern for me I don’t believe that I will be changing my behavior too much.
