Sourceforge.net, a common place for developers to share their code, forces their users to unconditionally accept new terms and conditions without any other alternative. The only button to press is "I agree".[citation needed] There is no way to refuse the new terms and conditions. There is also no way for a user to delete their account without accepting the new conditions.[citation needed] A link to those terms and conditions is available and shows content that amounts to an equivalent of 54 pages in format A4.
