This article is about a plug-in that recognizes TOS agreements and summarizes them for you. I've often wondered if it's feasible to create a plug-in that recognizes TOS agreements and clicks the Accept button for you.

It should also make a record showing that you never saw the agreement and did not click the button. Maybe it could aggregate these records to show that for a given website there are thousands of users who have never seen the TOS.

Given that most people seem to think these click-through agreements are already pretty weak from a legal standpoint, I wonder how much more it would take to make them completely worthless.
