I read about your excellent efforts on Internet T&Cs in an article by Jacob
Aron that was in New Scientist recently.
Back in August I became terminally frustrated by these and came up with my
own solution. Put simply, when I click the *accept *button, I intone, "I do
not really accept, but I had to tick the box to get your stuff. My terms
and condition are publicly available on the great internet." I then copy
and paste the offensive screen and save it in* my terms & conditions*.
I wrote about it on my website here:
http://www.georgekeeling.com/2014/08/buying-spanner-vs-buying-software.html
where you can also see my very simple T&Cs.
It will be interesting to test the legality of this in the courts, but it
works for me.
*Andrew, why doesn't your committee just write some T&Cs similar to mine
and say that any internet trader / service provider must use them for
consumer agreements? The EU might even adopt it.*
