alt Hacker NewsI saw a Mastodon tweet a while ago, which went something like:
Do tech companies understand consent?:

- [ ] Ask me again in a few days

This. We must change laws that the above field is not considered as given consent. And while we are at it, we must change "silence is agreement" to "silence is disagreement". This applies to change of ToS, price increases etc. That means if I don't click a link with a button "I agree", the ToS change is not accepted - that means they have to cancel/delete my account.

They ran out of letter "o" supply, so they can't spell "no".
