jeezus. Somebody wanted to lawyer up in favor of a telecom company. I mean, if you want to go a satanic and immoral, you can't go worse that that.

As many other people here have pointed out, if you want to argue legality, then you already have conceded that it was immoral. Hiding behind the law means you are openly advocating being an asshole just because you can. Supporting the 'contract' for companies which are notorious in screwing people over? THEY. DO. THIS. ALL. THE. TIME.

Despite what you want to argue about conservatorship, that is beside the point. I did recognize that it was done wrongly. You continue to insist that it is important regardless. Read the damn article. Direct TV renewed the contract without the customers realizing. They lied and tried to enforce a lie. (I'm sure with damning fine print. Legal sure, but asshole legal.) And yes, contracts are often rendered invalid due to such acts. There's a number of ways (adhesion, misrepresentation, etc) but the point is any reasonable sense would recognize trying to enforce such a contract is inappropriate on it's face. Attempting to enforce just a broken contract means you place the value of greed over the value of human beings. That is broken.
