Hi Thomas, the legal position is far from clear. I'm hoping to get a steer on current custom and practice. I see that lots of wifi's have tick boxes for T&c's .... why?

Am I happy to take legal advise from WMUK? Thats not what I asked.
I'm quite happy to see if they can point me at a relevant law or know of an example of good custom and practise.

Roger

You're going to have to get professional legal advice anyway, so why
ask us first?
