contract-law terms-of-service
Any Terms of Service deemed invalid due to excessive length?
<ul>
<li>I don't know any people who read TOS.</li>
<li>I don't know any people who know people who read TOS.</li>
<li>The only people I know who do read TOS are people on the internet, lawyers and the like.</li>
<li>Quote from news "PayPal agreement is longer than Hamlet".</li>
<li>TOS printed is often more than 20 pages / 36,275 words.</li>
<li>Even if most people were to read TOS, they wouldn't have the legal skills to make an educated decision.</li>
<li>For most it's just "whatever, click, yes, let me proceed".</li>
<li>For many/most people engaging a lawyer which they can held liable in case of misinformation to analyze the TOS for them is unaffordable as well. At least when using as much services as a usual person does.</li>
</ul>

<p>Because of any or multiple above (or other) arguments...</p>

<p>Has ever been the argument made in court that it unreasonable to expect people read through the legal jargon and therefore render the TOS invalid in part or entirely?</p>

<p>Providing the terms comply with consumer law in the relevant jurisdiction and they are presented through a click-wrap (i.e. you tick to acknowledge you agree to them), they are legally binding.</p>

<p>Note: common law renders unconscionable terms unenforceable and many consumer laws extend this to unfair terms.</p>
