Admit it, you don't understand Diddly-Squat, do you?

 

I just received an update to LifeLock’s License & Service Agreement...

Ø Should I read it all? ... Yes I should.

Ø Will I read it all? ... No I won’t.

Ø If I read it all, how much would I understand? ... Not much!

I won’t I read it all because it is 11,407 Words cram packed with Confusion, Legalese and a Bunch of Words That I Bet Were Made Up Only for Use in this Agreement.

Here is a 148 word snippet. Imagine how confused you would be if you were Silly enough to try and read all 11,407 words...

Injunctive and Declaratory Relief. Except as provided in Section 2(b) above, the arbitrator shall determine all issues of liability on the merits of any claim asserted by you or NortonLifeLock and may award declaratory or injunctive relief only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by that party's individual claim. To the extent that you or NortonLifeLock prevail on a claim and seek public injunctive relief (that is, injunctive relief that has the primary purpose and effect of prohibiting unlawful acts that threaten future injury to the public), the entitlement to and extent of such relief must be litigated in a civil court of competent jurisdiction and not in arbitration. The parties agree that litigation of any issues of public injunctive relief shall be stayed pending the outcome of the merits of any individual claims in arbitration.

This is not really an attack on LifeLock. I’m glad I have their coverage. I just pray that Lifelock and all these other companies where we have sworn that we have read their Policy Agreements but we have not read their Policy Agreements will be honest with us if the time ever comes where we need them to explain what those words mean. 

Would I kid u?
