> The takeover due to the lack of response to an email is worrying

The trouble is that that is the way most way modern small print is worded.

Read the small print in any contract of the last 10 years. Almost all of them when speaking about delivery of notices will apply $n days to emails.

Everyone in the tech world knows why it's a horrible idea, but sadly most lawyers who draft these things either don't care, or their client doesn't care and that's how the lawyer has been instructed to draft.
