Comment on ‘Meta is out of options’: EU regulators reject its privacy fee for Facebook and Instagram
CosmicCleric@lemmy.world 5 months agoI’m guessing that’s not enforceable per much anywhere, hence the “unless prohibited by law” part.
My understanding is it actually is, as other companies also use that clause. Having said that, IANAL.
But they stick it in there so they can scare you into giving up a legal fight. Most terms of service are throwing crap at the wall and seeing what sticks.
/agree
However that can make for a lot of negative PR, if people actually start noticing that clause and talk about it to each other.

Just because everyone does it doesn’t make it legal, it just means there aren’t penalties for putting it in. That’s why everyone goes 5-10mph over the speed limit, lack of enforcement doesn’t make something legal.
