    I know, I read it, and those words mean absolutely nothing. You and I will never be affected by it. It's like a random passerby waving sage at you and telling you they've disturbed your aura.

    I promise you practically every TOS you've ever blindly clicked through said something very similar.

    ToS are generally not binding as it's not expected for the average person to actually read through the dense language. There is precedent for this
