I think the major disconnect here is just a lack of accountability. Someone claims they did not give permission because they didn’t realize they gave permission because they didn’t read what they agreed to, then realizing their argument is invalid claims the entire process of a company having terms and conditions is somehow unethical.
The IDEA that a person should not have any responsibility because of willful ignorance seems quite astonishing, and continually beating the dead horse just keeps this stinky mess going. Let’s all let the horse die peacefully
