When is the last time that you have read a TOS? You are shifting blame to the user, and it should not rest there. This is bad UI, and laziness. Meetup's TOS reads like a boiler-plate legal document; no one will read it.

Given that TOS's are often written by Lawyers it seems that their reading like a legal document has a high probability.
