Why would you need proof of delivery? The original email gives instructions. You follow those instructions and can prove you did so with date and timestamps. I donât see the issue.

Legally you have to be able to prove someone received a thing. Itâs why you get served when youâre sued. An agent physically hands you the complaint (or whatever theyâre called). If the papers were put in the mail the person being sued could say they never received them.

Couldnât the same be said about the TOS updates though? Would they not need to prove it was delivered?

Exactly. Thatâs why an email saying you are losing your rights unless you opt out is invalid. You cant prove that i ever saw/received that email

Thatâs the whole point. They can force you to agree to updated TOS before they allow you to access their app.

Canât you trace an email and prove it was delivered? Even mail you sign for only proves you received it, not that you opened it.

No. You can confirm the server received it. Thatâs different from a user opening it and reading it
