<h1>Terms of Service</h1>
<p>Last updated: April 28, 2020</p>
<p>Please read these terms of service carefully before using Our service.</p><br>
<h1>Interpretation and Definitions</h1>
<h2>Interpretation</h2>
<p>The words of which the initial letter is capitalized have meanings defined under the following conditions.</p>
<p>The following definitions shall have the same meaning regardless of whether they appear in singular or in plural.</p>
<h2>Definitions</h2>
<p>For the purposes of these Terms of service:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>HAVE YOU READ YOUR CONTRACT?</strong> is a modern-digital-colonial <a class="text" href="#textpublishingarchive">text publishing archive</a>, a series of word analysis that reveals the modern-colonial contexts/words in <a class="text" href="#tos">'Terms of Service (ToS)'</a>. ToS is a modern working/slavery contract in <a class="text" href="#digitalcolonialsociety">digital colonial society</a>, where big companies are dominating the power structures via ToS to deceive users. The project introduces the resemblance of <a class="text" href="#colonialtreaties">colonial treaties</a> in historical colonialism to the digital society by mapping out the whole architecture of language used in ToS comparing with historical colonial treaties.</li><br>
<li><a name="textpublishingarchive"></a><strong>DIGITAL TEXT PUBLISHING ARCHIVE</strong> means a digital (repository) infrastructure of text material that I desire to keep for a long-term preservation. It is evident that not much of digital material will survive<a id="reference-number" href="#1" class="text">[1]<span class="text-hover">(Zelkowitz, 2003): Advances in Computers: Information Repositories edited by Marvin Zelkowitz</span></a>. Archiving is important in digital age as a preservation tool because of perpetual changes in digital platform. This platform archives collections of related informations about my project including news articles, videos, books, tweets ... to proffer knowledges I gleaned from the web. The archive will contain different analyzations on the modern-colonial words and contexts. </li><br>
<li><strong>WORD ANALYSIS</strong> is very important because of <a class="text" href="#obfuscation">obfuscation of language</a> in ToS. Usually ToS are made with polite and generic language to deceive users. By using these general terms, those big tech companies try to wash their hands of responsibility and disclaim their liability to back up themselves. Similarly to the language of ToS, the terminology in treaties are phrased in an equivocally circuitous manner that it's indirect. Therefore, vernaculars used in English ToS, which has similarities to <a class="text" href="#colonialtreaties">colonial treaties</a> will be discovered by analyzing the words that were used during this period.</li><br>
<li><a name="obfuscation"></a><strong>OBFUSCATION OF LANGUAGE</strong>: <a class="text" href="#tos">Terms of Service</a> tend to obfuscate its meaning of contexts by having a way too long texts, so that users don't read them and just click accept. Usually, ToS are written in impenetrable legalise, intentionally vague and generic language that designed to make it impossible to deceive users. During colonial times, obfuscation of language was happening in <a class="text" href="#colonialtreaties">colonial treaties</a> as well. </li><br>
<li><a name="colonialtreaties"></a><strong>COLONIAL TREATIES</strong> are known as agreements, pacts and major contracts made between countries during colonial times. It was a formally concluded agreement between a colonizer and a colony, these treaties are a binding formal agreement that establishes obligations between two or more subjects. Most of the time, colonial treaties were coercively made by a colonizer. It was very common that colonial treaties were slanted in favour of the colonizer, and pushed to sign it without knowing that sovreignty or jurisdiction will be infringed. One of the example would be, <a class="text">a treaty of Ganghwa Island<span class="text-hover-img"><img src="img/ganghwa.jpg" ></span></a> made between Japanese and Korean. They used a term called 'Unequal treaty' to refer that the treaty had generally regarded as an unequal treaty coerced by Japan. By doing so, the Empire of Japan had a full control over rullig Korean Empire <a id="reference-number" href="#2" class="text">[2]<span class="text-hover">(Duus, 1998):The Abacus and the Sword: The Japanese Penetration of Korea. University of California Press</span></a>.</li><br>
<li><a name="digitalcolonialsociety"></a><strong>DIGITAL COLONIAL SOCIETY</strong>: It is a concept based on <a class="text" href="#digitalsociety">a digital society <span class="text-hover">that every aspect of lives is profoundly being affected by the domination of digital technology</span></a> where user's online behavior becomes monetisable commodity to be sold by <a class="text" href="#bigcorporations">big corporations<span class="text-hover-top">giving them direct power over political, economic and cultural domains of life</span></a>, and users don't properly get paid. This ingenious ways of extracting cheap labour from users show similar ways of exploitating natural/human resources in colonial times.
<br><br>
<a class="text">(+)<span class="text-hover-top">Although it is clear that the modes, intensities, scales, and contexts of today's digital colonialism are distinctive from the historical colonialism, the underlying power structures remain the same (Couldry, 2019)</span></a> Of course, this doesn't mean that the transformation of colonialism has done fully identical. Unlike a historical colony that was bounded mostly by geographical locations, a digital colony has no physical borders. There are no geographical locations, there are only IP addresses, domain names, and user's data. Therefore, digital colonialism expands by exploiting more layers of human life itself through the use of technology (Couldry, 2019).
</li>
<br>
<li><strong>THE IDEA OF COLONIALISM</strong> seems to be an eternal loop that comes back throughout history. It is essential not to ignore that digital colonialism is applicable to countries regardless of the history.</li><br>

<h1>Contents</h1>
<p>This archive presents the following ToS such as FaceApp, TikTok, PokemonGo, Snaptchat, Netflix, Amazon, Aibo(Sony). We also provide some historical treaties made during one's colonial era, such as ........, for you to interpret how the former might have had some similar characteristics to the latter.</p>

<ul>
<li>to contribute a platform of reading ToS. In doing so, it questions what does it mean to provide ToS in the digital corporate society.</li><br>
<li>to question the concept of digital colonialism by providing visualization of ToS language as a modern-colonial tool to deceive users.</li><br>
<li>to analyze ToS from major tech companies to investigate how particular terms are being used in the specific context of ToS. Because ToS platforms have different tones of voice, different words are being used. How does the platforms have modern-colonial aspects in ToS?</li><br>
<li>to examine what is modern-colonial language by taking a closer look on words within the realm of ToS. This provides categorization of modern-colonial language into digital colonial glossary.</li><br>
