If they weren’t legally enforceable then the corpos wouldn’t be seething right now. Everything they tell you not to worry about is something you should probably fuckin’ worry about.
I mean, even if they’re broadly unenforceable, companies include them anyways as a means of intimidation. This FTC decision basically puts up a giant neon sign telling everyone “yeah this isn’t legal” which makes it pretty cut and dry. Big companies thrive on ambiguity because that’s where an expensive lawyer comes in to argue the case whichever way; they will have a much harder time doing that now.
This is very true and I should have included that. It’s fucked how much of this shit is just barely legal or legal only on a technicality and we just let it slide. This ban has given me a lot of hope, though.
