> Should the state just prohibit all agreements between two parties unless the state's adjudicator decides they are exactly equal in "power" and permits it.

This is a strawman and you know it. Please at least make an attempt to argue in good faith, otherwise there's no point.

Of course there should be a reasonable middle-ground. The current situation with completely bogus ToS is not it.

Let me turn it around: should the state just abandon it's duty of creating an fair and equal playing field between large corporations and clients and let society devolve into a corporatocracy where laws are enforced purely to further corporate interests? Because that's exactly what you seem to be suggesting.

See? Not particularly conductive to discourse, is it :D

Uh yes? And you clearly know it too. It was a bit like your McDonalds strawman.

No need to get in a huff when we obviously both know what we're talking about. It's not conducive to the discussion.

I don't know exactly what the current situation with completely bogus ToS is, I'm willing to accept it could be adjusted. I was asking specifically about your proposed adjustment to it though. Your reasons for the new framework you suggested.

That isn't what I was suggesting. I was asking you how you came to your conclusion in the previous post. (EDIT: Sorry you did not conclude that, the grandparent did the parent of my first post you replied to, but you posted seemingly in support)
