A contract doesn't need to be signed. All it takes is a "meeting of the minds". Ever bought a coffee from a street vendor just by pointing at something / handing them some cash or similar? That's a valid contract. As long as people keep noticing how stupid Ayn Rand is before they come of voting age, we do have some protection against surprises: you can't just sign over your house or your first-born by clicking on a cookie banner. But I'm pretty sure Facebook could make you type "I won't scrape Facebook" into a box and it'd be (civil-law) binding.
