Privacy has become a very important issue in modern society, with companies and governments constantly abusing their power, more and more people are waking up to the importance of digital privacy.
In this community everyone is welcome to post links and discuss topics related to privacy.

They do not.
The format where they do is when it is a service provider and they simply stop service of the contract. I.e. if you don't accept the terms and services for say, using reddit, they can just choose to not continue providing you access to those servers.
But it didn't hold up on contracts involving already rendered services or anything really other then the outcome of declining being 'everyone exiting the contract' or simply moving back to the previous contract.
Courts in the us have pretty much universally upheld that contracts cannot be changed without all parties agreeing.
Yeah but the whole tech industry operates as Whatever-as-a-Service now, which means those ToS changes are able to be applied whenever they like. You either continue using the service or you don't. This apparently applies to lightbulbs now. Lightbulbs as a Service. Sigh.
