A century ago, you and I would would hammer out the terms of a contract to our mutual and equitable interest and sign it. Both of us being bound.
Today, corporations want contractual "concepts" to only apply in one direction -- against the consumer. They expect to be able to strip away legal rights in their Terms of Service and End User Licensing Agreements, while also retaining the right to change ANYTHING at ANY time they please yet still have courts treat them like binding contracts.
What we need is a core set of consumer rights that are immutable.
