When I click a button that says I agree to share my data with a third party app, I am also clicking it on behalf of all of my friends. Where in the TOS does it say that?
When you use an application, the application may ask for your permission to access your content and information as well as content and information that others have shared with you. We require applications to respect your privacy, and your agreement with that application will control how the application can use, store, and transfer that content and information. (To learn more about Platform, including how you can control what information other people may share with applications, read our Data Policy and Platform Page.)
How can you give consent to share with a third party what I have shared privately with you? Just because the TOS says so doesn’t make you exposing my private Information consentful.
Look at the example of what LinkedIn and WhatsApp and all its ilk does: I don’t want to be on those platforms. But friends upload their address books all the time, so I’m fairly sure they all have a full view of my social connections. How and where did I agree to that? How can my friends meaningfully consent to that on my behalf?
Once again, your friends agreed to the possibility of this happening when they agreed to the TOS. I’m on my mobile phone right now, so I won’t be combing through the TOS looking for the specific clause atm. Maybe in an edit later. But it’s there.
In the US if you are unable to enter a legally binding agreement if you are intoxicated... Users who aren't reading anything, just ticking a box with a mouse click and hitting next defeats the purpose of a legally binding agreement.
If both parties aren't all committed or informed, this is simliar an intoxicated person entering a legally binding agreement.
These so-called "clickwrap" or "browser-wrap" agreements have definitely been found to be enforcible. However the details of exactly how the agreement was presented and what the user had to click can affect their enforcibilty.
