Have You Read Your Contract?
Have you read your contract??????
Terms of service are the legal documents presenting the agreement between a service provider and a person who wants to use that service. These agreements tend to be strategically obfuscated by the platforms with a circuitous manner, written in highly specified legal terms, and lacking the possibilities for lay persons to understand them.
In "Have you read your contract?" we will focus on dissecting these legal documents, by taking Google's Terms of Services as your working document, which we will collectively, read, discuss, and edit, in order to understand the affect of language obfuscation and how could it be replaced by a more explicit vocabulary modes of address.
