The greatest or most widespread lies on the internet

No doubt that internet technology has come to stay in our world. Though I acknowledge the fact that I am not excellently spiritual and doubt if anyone is. 

When it comes to telling lies, it is something that have become part of human existence and therefore I doubt if people can keep clean sheet throughout their lifetime without telling lies both offline and online, and be it white lies, black lies, blue, green and red lies if anything close to that exist.

Even as I write this now, there is an ongoing incidence currently taking place right in front of me in a present location.

 A neighbor is receiving a phone call just outside and I can hear from his phone conversation, him telling probably the caller that he is already at Trans-Amadi road (location) and that he is almost close (probably where they scheduled to meet up), meanwhile as I speak to you, he is just still outside his home which is currently in Agip road (different location) and I doubt if he has even taken his bath.

So you see that telling lies cuts across all individuality just like that and in virtually all ramifications of life; sometimes done intentionally and sometimes you do it obliviously.

Even the clergies amongst us are not spared in telling lies. Some of the eloquent and clever clergies even on course of their ministrations sometimes come up with white lies to use in complementing their sermons.

Going by the topic of the day, maybe I should have referred to it as technological lies. I supposed you must have been wondering or waiting for that greatest or most wide spread internet lies, which I am quite certain that in some cases I and you are also guilty of them.

Ok, here goes the most widespread internet lies…please don’t laugh…wink

= =>Click I Accept (I Agree) if you have read and understood our Terms of Services and Privacy Policy. Lo and behold most people click I Accept (I Agree) on many webpages that requested that even when they have not even read the first sentence of the Terms of Service and Privacy Policy.

It also comes in these forms;

= =>By clicking Signup, you agree to our Terms and that you have read our Privacy policy. Most just go ahead to click the Signup without having read any Privacy Policy.

= =>By clicking Register, you acknowledge that you have read and understood our Terms of Service and Privacy Policy. Many go ahead to register without reading any Terms of Service or Privacy Policy.

The question now that one will be asking is;

Why do you think that many hardly read Terms of Services and Privacy Policy of the online pages they visit even when it was clearly requested of them?

For me, I think the two major reasons for that, why people end up telling such lies of I Agree even when they have not read neither the Terms of Services nor the Privacy Policy of pages they visit are because of time factor and the lengthy Terms of Services and Privacy policy they are always greeted with.

But one very important thing that I must mention here is that it is said ‘Ignorance to the law is never an excuse’. 

Therefore you should be ready to face and accept any consequences thereafter when any form of conflict arises and also you should be ready to easily throw in the towel in such a scenario since it was a failure on your part to read the pages TOS and PP before going ahead to Sign up even after being told to do the needful.

One cannot doubt the fact that it is a good online practice to always read TOS and PP of every page online the come across and interested to make use of, especially whenever they are presented to you in those manners.

Yes I am also guilty of that in some cases and also working towards improving on that, and I think you should also follow suit and improve on that too.
