Is "social contract" code for "agreement I wish existed"? Because it's only used in occasions where no such agreement actually exists.

Some may have expected Google to remain just a discovery tool. That doesn't mean Google owed them to do so.

It's code for "agreement that everybody thought existed, despite not being written."

I don't think this one social contract actually existed.

It might not be everybody.
