Do you have experience with any of these?

I’m interested in tools that highlight privacy invasive terms and conditions that are often hidden behind legal jargon or wrapped up in so much text that the end user is discouraged to actually read through the terms of service and/or the privacy policy.
ToS;DR is also a useful tool. There is a browser extension and a website
Sweet! What a neat project!
My previous statement is outdated (see replies). I still think TLDRs are inherently wrong, but ToS;DR seems to have improved significantly.
The website is extremely opinionated IMO, which just goes to show how important it is to read the ToS and not a TLDR.Would you mind sharing an example?
After trying to find some examples, I’ve determined that my previous statement is incorrect. It seems the site has expanded by a considerable amount, and the complaints I had (e.g. Tor was ranked something like C while Google was ranked B) no longer apply.
Regardless, I think having someone else summarize a legally binding contract is still a horrible idea in so many ways.
I agree people should read ToS and Privacy Policies themselves but if you don’t want to this site is a good tool to point out anything bad.
