My router (TP Link) said it had a firmware update. I’m a responsible adult, so I update my firmware. When I log back in, I get this popup that they’d like to share my clients info.

cool…

i have always wondered how this works from the legal point. what if you disagree, should you sue to get your money back? you are buying product with some expectations, they can’t just change that after you paid, can they?

it is similar with cars, what if you buy new car and the car’s infotainment asks you to accept some outrageous terms and conditions, you do bother to actually read them and then decline. can you get your money back? has anyone ever tried?
