   @Urban_Hermit @pseudonym And yet, somehow, if I send a letter to a creditor saying “by reading this letter, you hereby renounce all debts, past, present, and future, owed by the sender to you, irrevocably, in perpetuity,” somehow that doesn’t count!

   It’s almost like there’s one set of rules for giant corporations, and another for the rest of us. How odd. 🤔

     THINGS THAT ARE NOT CONSENT:

     "We will brick your device if you do not agree to terms of service" is not 🤬 consent.

     "The company you worked for transfered your retirement to this company. You will not get access until you create an account and agree to our terms of service and fees and payments. There is no other way to reach us." Not 🤬 consent!

     "The money you are owed is on this card. To redeem you have to sign this card which means you agree to our terms of service and fees." Not 🤬 consent!

     Paul Cantrell and GNU Too repeated this.

     Remember when Sony-BMG intentionally encoded malware on a music CD then distributed 22 million of them to the public? No Sony executives went to prison over this. But just you try it ...
