Online Standards of Service Use (Assignment #1)

Five major company websites that use terms and service agreements are:
1- Microsoft Office
2- Netflix.ca
3- Facebook.com
4- Snapchat
5- iTunes

5 things you should be aware of when not reading Terms of Service and Agreements are:
1- If a website hosts your photo, they also own it-- this means any photo you upload onto a certain website allows them to use it for any future reference.
2-  You don't own what you buy-- meaning any games/ music you purchase online are still under value of i.e. Facebook
3- When using location device systems such as OnStar, they can sell your driving data and personal information to whoever
4- Companies such as Apple are permitted to see your precise location wherever you are; which is basically sending your personal data to a hidden database file and syncs whenever you connect to your phone
5- When agreeing to Terms and Agreements, you are agreeing to clause of arbitration. 
This is cancelling your right to sue.
