alt Hacker NewsYou are right. It is okay to do whatever you want, as long as there is a sign stating it might happen.
Especially in an area you own, like your own website or property.
Want to dump toxic waste in your backyard? Just put up a sign so your neighbors know, then if they stick around it's on them, really, no right to complain.
Want to brake-check the person behind you on the highway? Bumper sticker that says "this vehicle may stop unexpectedly". Wow, just like that you're legally off the hook!
Want to hack someone's computer and steal all their files? Just put a disclaimer on the bottom of your website letting them know that by visiting the site they've given you permission to do so.

Stop strawmanning. Just because I support google AI answers with a disclaimer, doesn't mean I think a disclaimer is a carte blanche to do literally anything.
Fun fact along this line of reasoning: all those dump trucks with the "not responsible for broken windshields" stickers? Yes, yes they are responsible.
You can't just put up a sticker premeditating your property damage and then it'd a-okay.
No, the sticker is there to deter YOU from suing in small claims court. Because you think you can't. But you can! And their insurance can cover it!
