Summary
Author argues that while internet contracting poses unique and serious problems, standard form contracts like EULAs and TOU can be freedom enhancing rather than restricting. The article suggests that, like with most new technologies, new relevant value-justified norms (like banning reverse engineering and limiting information gathering practices on websites) will emerge and eliminate the offensive terms of internet contracts.
