Terms of Service: The Length of Common Digital Contracts Do you take the time to read the terms of service before you agree to when downloading the latest app or software?

Of course you do…

The world is awash with apps and internet services that ask potential users to agree to a service agreement. Most people click on ‘agree’ and move on, knowing that reading the service agreements could put them to sleep and defer their favorite internet fix.

That only applies if you modify/distribute it. That doesn't apply to a user. I guess comparing the length of a company's employee handbook would be a fair comparison to the GPLv2.
