I think I understand why they worded it like that now, though. Apparently there are people who honestly believe by clicking an agree button they're basically waiving all of their rights. What if somewhere deep in their ToS SE buried a clause that stated they could force you into slave labor? Would you do it? You clicked agree...
I guess I'm not the only one here that doesn't understand contract law. It seems you and I are in the same boat.

But you're just taking this around in circles and moving the goalpost, so if you could provide me with a written statement from someone at SE stating that they "know their ability to terminate your access to their service is restricted by contract law" and all that, that would be great. I'm just stating what's in the user agreement, but you seem to speak for SE themselves, so if this is a legal matter, why not back it up with a statement from them? Or do you not have access to that? Then maybe you should leave the assumptions at home or maybe taking one more contract law class for good measure.

There's nothing illegal about terminating your account if they feel like it. You agreed to allow them to do it. If it was illegal I'm pretty sure they wouldn't be able to put it in their user agreement, I would think. Weird that you play and sub to a game that breaks the law, though. Does that mean you're breaking the law by agreeing to it? I don't know, I'm not a lawyer like you.

As for the slave labour thing, I read the agreement before signing. It's not that long. And if you have time to argue about this, you have time to read it too. I suggest you do.

Back up your claims with real facts and not conjecture. My defence is the user agreement itself. All you have is opinions, it seems.
