Generally the fine print says they can change the conditions of the fine print whenever they want to. So basically you just waste your time reading the fine print because it could change 5 minutes later and you'd never know it. It's not a bad idea, but it doesn't really guarantee anything, and generally arbitration is the recourse if you disagree with them at some point, and arbitration rarely favors the one with the grievance.
They can change it, but they are required to notify registered users of that fact. They send out the "Our Terms of Service have changed" email, and a link to the new terms.
Riiiiight. And if that email that notifies you of changes never gets to you, well that's certainly possible with email after all. "Hey, we sent you an email."
My point is that they hold all the cards, but if it makes you feel like you're being proactive then go for it. They're always going to be at least 5 steps ahead of you, and the only way to save what little is left of your privacy is completely forego the internet and stick to faxes.
