Take note, I think CIA should be shut down

if that's not clickbait, I'll be surprised

me too; and the FBI

I am not defending them. Nor KGB

the CIA still has more value than say the ATF

American gov doesn't function per design with alphabet agencies

All alphabets soups violate the Constitution so yeah they have to go

Both CIA and FBI seems to be filled with mostly bureaucratic boomers

Yeah, CIA is better at arming the cartels

It was clickbait, he spent the first half talking like a cuck about Pepe and then breaking down into incredulity when getting to the OK symbol

Literal boomers*

like Daddy Bush

And thats not even getting into H Walker Bush and what his CIA did to this nation

> fuckers... what gives them the right to specify their OWN statute of limitations?

@ManAnimal That's pretty standard, actually. Look through other ToS and they have something to the effect of: "Action must be taken within X years of whatever" and you agree to it when you sign.

Contract is the highest form of manmade law. "To one consenting, no injury is done." ~ Legal Maxim

lol; we think alike @D Two Hands

yes, yes. i know the theory

> "Severance : If it turns out that a particular term of this Agreement is not enforceable for any reason, this will not affect any other terms."

Severance is basically boilerplate. It basically means that if part of this contract fails, it doesn't mean the whole thing fails.

Good to know some people still get it. Most people my age think im talking about Dubya whenever i screetch about Bush

so why can't you do that in say a home improvement contract and why isn't such a clause standard in EVERY contract?

something doesn't add up

So far as I know, you can

if you could do that legally, everyone would do it as a matter of course

Whether you're smart enough to include that is another matter

and i know for a fact they don't

it's not a matter of 'being smart enough'

Short of committing a crime, you can contract to do pretty much anything.

that is what corporate lawyers get paid the big bucks for

again, that doesn't add up

i also know that credit card companies cannot do this either

Ive had those clauses in renters agreements before. It may be a tort thing where you can be disqualified from using such a clause? I know tech in general uses all kinds of legal loopholes to avoid culpability for various user behaviors

in fact, currently, the way credit card companies operate is 'pseudo-legal'

that is my point too @D Two Hands, it's either tort or contract

can't be both

The only reason I can think of why severability might be excluded from a home improvement contract is cuz of liability. If part of the project fails, it could damage the structural integrity of the whole. Again, so far as I know, there's nothing stopping a severability clause, but if there is, that could be the reason.

yt TOS is trying to play both sides; tort AND contract

Pretty much the entirety of law boils down to liability and who is responsible for what

Lets be honest though, most companies are only operating psuedo-legally. Everyone has the "official manual" and "how we actually do things manual" so to say

Contract > tort

true, but the same document cannot cover both
