Freedom of choice or is it?

[AmericanBuffalo]

I am unsure of what the percentage of people actually read through user agreements for the various tech devices, apps and software they use everyday. I would guess it is quite low. I would guess that because I have read many through the years and in doing so read how I would be agreeing to having information mined from my activities and then presented back to me as suggestions. To put it simply. So I really don't use much tech. Keep it very limited and still realize just by using it I have compromised my freedoms in some ways with agreeing with some of these user agreements. I think there is a conditioning affect from this in people.

We are constantly in the situation were we are giving implied consent.

Implied consent is consent inferred from a person's actions and the facts and circumstances of a particular situation (or in some cases, by a person's silence or inaction).

We consent often by compliance, by doing nothing, or by saying nothing. It can be very tricky, and in a lot of cases, it is designed to be so, because consent by deception is very prevalent in our society today.

You are right on to some of what I am trying to convey. Not sure if my writing gets to the crux. As I stated I am having difficulty trying to articulate this.
