What do we really need?




                                                                           ... besides the severability clause ...

New Tools?
- Simplify terms.
- Design services rather than try to
    bullet-proof (if it blows up, it will always
    be a business decision anyway).
-   Adapt concepts (e.g. privacy as a
    currency ).
-   Do not try to shoe-horn old templates
    into new behavioural patterns!
Thank you!
