Checked out that new library branch downtown and noticed something off with their public computers

They've got the guest login set to auto-accept the terms without showing them, which seems like a liability. I was there last Tuesday and watched three people just click right through a blank screen. Has anyone else seen this setup before?

Yeah, that's a huge problem. They're basically tricking people into agreeing to stuff they never read.

Wait, who actually reads those terms anyway?

But is it really a trick if nobody reads those things anyway?

Remember those old internet cafes that made you sign a paper form? The one by my college had a rule about no food, but the pen was always chained to a giant greasy pizza box.
