Sites to Start Enforcing Terms of Service



The government is proposing to make it illegal to violate a websites terms of service. Such websites would be Myspace, Google, Facebook, etc. Many people think it is up to the site to enforce their terms of service.

For example, did you know you have to be 18 to use Google, according to their terms of service? If this new law passes, it will be illegal and you could face a fine and or jail time for violating this.

"You may not use the Services and may not accept the Terms if (a) you are not of legal age to form a binding contract with Google..."

What do you think? Should the government interfere in this situation? Or is it up to the site to enforce their terms?
