Can I do the reverse now as well? Email a company a unilateral change in the TOS? Or do TOS's have provisions against that as well?

"I do not agree with your new TOS and will continue under your old TOS, and I will continue to use your service". And see when they will close your account down.

Now if most of their customers did that, they wouldn't close down all the accounts. Forgotten power of the people.

[AceJohnny2]

yes, and if I had a unicorn I would be happy.

> Now if most of their customers did that

If most customers did anything active we'd have a radically different society. The difficulty is getting people engaged to fight back against the system (I'm not absolving myself from being part of those people)

IMO, this would make a great court case.

I know I'd be listening intently if I were on the jury. I'm a "sauce good for the goose is good for the gander" kind of guy.

Too bad that v1.0 of the ToS their victims "sign" forced all disputes into their lap-dog arbitration system.

[nickorlow]

My new ToS I sent them allows me to appoint anyone (including my self) as the arbiter.

[bell-cot]

That's a nice daydream - but v1.0 gave them exclusive rights to update the ToS or pick arbiters. Along with lots of other "heads we win, tails you lose" stuff. :(

They email from invalid addresses, so you cannot respond.

[deltoidmaximus]

Can you block their emails from being delivered thus blocking TOS updates?

[paulnpace]

Probably as long as the mail server responds with not delivered. Really, it would be better to have a lawyer go through the decision than laypeople parsing a judge.

[causal]

Was wondering this too. Not to mention adding TOS to your own sites that get used by bots and scrapers.
