Terms of Service wiki page in progress...
A Terms of Service agreement is an agreement between a user and a website about what terms the user must agree to in order to use the website. Most social media sites require users to sign a Terms of Service agreement to create an account, and many of these agreements authorize social media companies to use users' personal data for profit, creating controversy. [1]. Studies have found that few users actually read the agreements and may not understand what they are agreeing to in exchange for signing [2]. This has caused some jurisdictions to create regulations restricting what can appear in terms of service agreements and how much control users have regarding their privacy.
