Electronic contracts won't sustain much evidentiary support of...anything.
Maybe they filmed you while you read/interacted with the contract and required you to score high on a quiz about the contents of the contract?
- nostrademons 11y agoE-signing and electronic contracts are all over now...heck, most of the patents I filed with the USPTO were e-signed. If they don't provide much evidentiary support of...anything...then our legal system is in serious trouble.
- jsprogrammer 11y agoYes, this is true. Unless extraordinary measures were taken at the time of acceptance, there will be no real way to prove what the actual text was that you saw and allegedly agreed to. Presumably the text of the contract and the symbol of your acceptance are stored in some fairly standard database. Almost all computer data can be modified to look any way a party desires. How can we know that the contract Google presents as evidence was the exact contract you agreed to at that computer terminal however many years ago?
