IANAL. Neither are you*. But I will poke holes in your logic.
unless you have voluntarily agreed to the terms this is non binding....
Yeah. I didn't sign an agreement at that gas station, so there's no contract and I can just take the gas!
... there is no mutual agreement to any payment and your actions of viewing a random page do not construe such a contract or agreement.
Maybe. Depends on how they got there. Does the newspaper site have an entry pop-up it tries to show to every visitor? Is it forcing them to click past a warning? Are the terms there at all?
furthermore the person agreeing to any contract terms on dhcp cannot be proven to be the same person who clicked in a week later. clueless asshats.
That's just dumb. Folk can and have been identified based on IP address, DHCP be damned. You might as well say "you can't proove I was the one in that brown coat!" Of course they can. That's what juries are for.
