open to the public— now what would you think of a company that as a condition to
open to the publicmade it conditional upon surrendering your right to legal action?
Moreover, websites usually contain contact information, which means that to access the information (from the first party) you would necessarily surrender your right to sue. (This would be almost like having a phone-system customer-support/-comment phonline that gave the message by speaking to our representative you promise never to bring a lawsuit against the company.

Because you don’t sell me a product that might have problems that affect me negatively, visiting isn’t selling me an item I consume. Further, a cereal company doesn’t have clients “over” visiting, they sell their products in a store someone else owns, that I frequent. Discussing their product with them doesn’t mean you give up your rights to sue them if the product damages you.
