"I read the linked article and I still am completely not getting this.
I don't understand how this stunt is supposed to sell cars.
Tepper, Duick's attorney, said he discussed the campaign with Toyota's attorneys earlier this year, and they said the "opting in" Harp referred to was done when Duick's friend e-mailed her a "personality test" that contained a link to an "indecipherable" written statement that Toyota used as a form of consent from Duick.
Tepper, said that during those legal negotiations, Toyota's lawyers claimed Duick signed the written legal agreement, which they said amounts to "informed written consent."
I'm also not up on how clicking a link equates to "informed written consent." I understand there does exist such a thing as an electronic signature but I thought there was more to it than that."

Well, isn't it probably the case that one of the "details" of the unlimited plan is an asterisk that says *(Not really)."
