I don't think its fair. I use thumbs up emoji to indicate have received something. Does not mean I am accepting it.
Usually for that, I use the actual word: "Agreed" or "Accepted".

- jollofricepeas 3y agoIf he both previously accepted contracts and agreed to them in text message, then the judges point rightly stands. Example:: 1st instance: - msg: contract sent - reply: “Yes” 2nd instance: - msg: contract sent - reply: “I agree” 3rd instance: - msg: contract sent - reply: Thumbs up emoji
- ghusto 3y agoThat wouldn't be my interpretation, and is exactly why lawyers get you to state things in full sentences.
- tester756 3y agoEmojis are part of language and have meaning How conceptually emoji is different from your "agreed"?
- dahart 3y agoThat’s not the judge’s reasoning in this case. The reason is because the farmer in question already had a demonstrated habit of accepting contracts with short informal texts like “Ok”. Thumbs up is widely used to acknowledge receipt of a message without agreeing to anything contractually. It also has other meanings, such as ‘I like what you said’, and ‘that’s a good idea’. The ruling here does not represent a precedent over the meaning of the thumbs up emoji, nor does it confirm or deny any of the multiple common definitions for the thumb up emoji.
