Just Like Microsoft

Yes the fine-print you know that absolves the host company for any responsibility except billing you the customer.

It would be refreshing, it might even be revolutionary for a IT-related services company to accept responsibility to deliver to the customer exactly the service he/she is paying for. And for those instances where the company screwed up, they would own up and say: "Yes we screwed up". It seems that the computer services industry is filled with people that do not take or accept responsibility for anything.

The EULA document written by Microsoft should be ruled as null & void world-wide and all derivatives of it as well. Since Microsoft has managed to get it through the courts, everybody uses it. Force a service or software company to accept responsibility for failures that are directly related to their product's failure to perform as intended. Consumer rights have never been enforced in software failures.
