It would definitely be a very good thing to restore real contract law.
The "click through EULA" was a fork in the road where our legal system
went wrong and slid into a ditch and things have been spiralling
downwards ever since. Tech companies relying on unjust methods
absolutely should go bust, and good riddance,
> instantly swamped with just cases dealing
That's interesting. It's almost tempting to see that as an argument
against justice :) Right now in the UK we've potentially 4k - 5k
pending cases for about £600,000 compensation each against the Post
Office. It is already technically bankrupt on paper and will have to
be dissolved and re-nationalised under the next government.
So in many places in the world, the backlog of cases that courts
cannot deal with is the only thing keeping some large criminal
enterprises alive. In other words the sheer scale of their
injustice is what protects them. What did Stalin say, "A single death
is a tragedy, a million deaths is a statistic"?

If I never get the chance to get around to it, dif it ever really happen? Make no mistake; this is one of these sneaky things you can do to ensure that even if something you don't pike is the case, it never really materializes substantively, and fast enough to matter. It's one of my major issues with legislation that creates new remedies, but without taking into account the means through which that process will be executed. While an independent judiciary is crucial; there does need to be affordance for info propagation.
