Tos;DR (Terms of Service; Didn't Read)

"Terms of Service; Didn't Read" (short: ToS;DR) is a project started in June 2012 to help fix the "biggest lie on the web": almost no one really reads the terms of service we agree to all the time.

A much needed and helpful service. Most big tech companies seem to make their Terms of Service very hard to read. That's why Tos;DR is so useful. Because unpaid contributors do have to make most of the summaries, there are a lot of the Terms of Service for smaller companies/apps that aren't in the database. That being said, Tos;DR is very good at simplifying the Terms of Service for many different apps and services.

It could be useful, but it appears to be limited in scope. I tried searching for Notion or TickTick and got either no answer or an inadequate one.

TOS;DR may sound useful but it's now obsolete since most terms of service have become more readable. It's best to read the official TOS instead of third-party resources.

But most people aren't going to cover the nook and corner of every service they sign-up for. TOSDR provides a brief summary of what you are about to get yourself into. Generating awareness is more important than convincing yourself that every person is as big of a nerd as you are.
