Do you ever worry that by clicking 'I accept' without reading or understanding it....

....you have sold your firstborn son to Bill Gates without realising it?

When things were done on paper I was always very scrupulous about not signing anything I hadn't read but these days I download Windows updates and stuff and gaily click 'I accept' without even reading it.

Yes, often! But there's so much text, you just can't read it all can you! It's a bit like the advice to have different passwords for each thing you need a password for, and change them all regularly - good advice, but totally impractical in practise!

Oh I know, it's bad enough keeping track of the different passwords where you are forced to have different ones because they need different numbers of characters etc.
