I'm always enthused about helping folks understand the importance of reading contracts, so when Twitter user negaoryx opined on the "fine print" of NZXT's new Partner Program, I thought it a great jumping off point to discuss a few aspects of the modern "contract of adhesion" through a close examination of those program terms.

We're pretty sure "negaoryx" is a pokemon reference, but we just can't be *positive*...in Virtual Legality.
