In a representative survey of 1,000 Facebook users, however, only 1.6% of users understood the agreement to be such a “contract”.

I really wish courts would lash out more readily when something like this comes up. A contract should be understood by both parties, and both parties should be aware that they are entering into a contract.

I get that when those two parties are in court together, it’s pretty much normal to claim that you did not understand a contract and it’s near impossible for the other party to bring up evidence of such understanding.

But when the vast majority of contracts that an organisation enters into, are not understood by the other parties, that’s not a normal mode of operation for a company. That’s how a scam group operates.
