The same logic can also be applied to virtually any contract you sign that contains pages and pages of legal text. Should the same rights be applied to legally binding contracts that require only a signature?

There are a lot of considerations around making sure that all parties have adequate representation and they're able to read the terms of the agreement or have it explained in their native language.

This would motivate companies to make terms that not only protect them but are also reasonably accessible to the people signing them. Right now they're only optimizing for their own protection.
