It’s actually the judiciary you’d bring it up with, I believe.

Executive branch in Poland and I guess the rest of Europe as well. Bureau for Consumer Affairs. They make decisions, give penalties to corps and invalidate harmful ToS.

Then if a corporation doesn’t like it (and they never do), they can appeal in court.

E.g. PayPal is appealing rn because their shitty ToS were invalidated last year and they were punished for them.


The judiciary is a branch of government. But more crucially, some countries have better consumer protection agencies, eliminating the need for people to go through costly court battles for common sense stuff.
