Terms of Service; Didn't Read (ToS;DR) is a community project that aims to analyze and grade the terms of service and privacy policies of major internet sites and services. Each aspect of a TOS or privacy policy is assessed as positive, negative, or neutral. Services are graded from A (best) to E (worst) once project members form a consensus on it. The name of the project is a play on the phrase too long; didn't read.
The project lead is Hugo Roy, a hacktivist and law student. It was founded in June 2012 by Roy, programmer Michiel de Jong and designer Jan-Christoph Borchardt.
Several sources of inspiration have been noted for ToS;DR, including Creative Commons' plain English summaries of licenses, EU energy efficiency ratings, and Aza Raskin's Privacy Icons.
