Question

If you click an “I agree” box, odds are that it’s terms are binding on you,even if the box contains dozens or even hundreds of lines of dense text. Is this fair? Should the law change to limit the enforceability of click-wraps?

Answer 1

According to courts, sellers are entitled to offer products according to their terms. In fact, many sellers use click-wraps to include complicated terms in a small space. These agreements are binding even though consumers do not read them. However, such agreements are not fair to consumers. It is not possible for everyone to read such long and complex agreements. Agreements are definitely a necessary part of the deal. But law must definitely limit the enforceability of click-wraps based on the complexity and fairness of the agreements. In addition, law must mandate sellers to simplify their terms so that the consumers can read them easily. While purchasing important and high priced products, consumers must make sure that they go through the contract agreements even if it requires some effort. Otherwise, they would be gullible to the terms of the sellers. .
