I am currently in contract with a few agencies, and I am also using some services for monetization purposes. I surely do read each and every clause carefully, and take a copy of those terms that I have signed. For example, recently Microsoft updated their agreement and terms for Developer Accounts (Windows Store), and well I read both the content, the simple English one and the legal one and have taken a copy of the update. Better safe than sorry. In other usual cases, I do not try to spend time to go through all these terms and legal stuff, as I can leave the application as soon as I can, most of my data (profile information) is available on the Internet nonetheless.

What's so difficult about that?   Usually, I don't register with my real name on any site and use disposable email (I get next to no spam).

Only a few have dared - and I have an SMTP mailer that will send out email, in a loop, to my intended target (with real or spoofed return addresses, or spoofed only from major domains, and/or with a variation in subject and body). They usually learn quickly - even the screen-scrapers from Pakistan.

This includes a money-back-request to Steam or other platforms. Works always. NOTHING is so important, that I "have to accept" it. There's always an alternative. If I don't like what I read, I refuse. Years ago, during the Facebook hype, I have been on the registration page as friends tried to force me to using it. Read it. Declined. No Facebook for me. And what happened? NOTHING. I am still alive Same for Twitter. I don't use it. No matter, how "popular" a service is. I'd even go that far, that companies like Facebook or Twitter couldn't exist, if more people like me would READ what they write there, what they do. Well, that might be false, because there ARE millions of people that just don't care. I only hope for them, that they don't have to pay for this one day... || You know nothing, Jon Snow. || My Android Label (mbar Software) || My Android Apps in Play Store Re: Not only do I read them...

For all other things related to apple(s)... fruits and electronics are not a good team together, except maybe lemons... they can produce electricity. Tried to push an apple into a power plug one day... strange result. that was the point, where I, for myself, decided, that I won't use apples for anything other than eating. || You know nothing, Jon Snow. || My Android Label (mbar Software) || My Android Apps in Play Store Re: Not only do I read them...

I generally do this. No spams. No important information shared publically. modified 11-Mar-19 10:54am.

I did a degree in Law before I saw the light (after meeting several lawyers) and switched full-time to science (mostly computers), so I can read legalese quite fast - this helps a lot. - I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.
