Similarly, I have a sticky note attached to my monitor which states that anyone who runs their code on my machine (via Javascript, for instance) in exchange for any benefit (tracking data or ad impressions, for instance) must submit any claims against me to my chosen artbitrator (hi, mom!). I also plan on stealing a lot of cereal.
When I am effectively the server's server via running code on my machine, it seems like I have exactly the same right to declare unilateral terms-and-conditions for the use of my resources.

It's machine readable and provided before the page is delivered, so it should be at least as enforcible as the nonsense "terms" businesses seem to like these days.
