What other public spaces require you to provide your personal information and agree to a service contract before you can use them?

That is a dog and pony show to get away with their legal bullsh*t. Once the public shows up, it becomes public regardless of what the terms of service say.

Try to imagine a phone company gettinng away with that sort of bullsh*t.

The public shows up at my grocery store. I suppose the store just lost its rights too?

If it's a store, no. If it's a f***ing place where the public gather to communicate with each other, then the place has no right to censor the public.

Never had that right. Again, telephone company.

But it's not 'the public'. It's a group of people who formally agreed to the TOS.

These people said they would play by the rules if they were let in.

You've made clear that principle isn't very important to you but shouldn't that matter?
