Stephenson's Law

The tendency of a party to copy-and-paste a set of rules relating to an area of knowledge one has a limited understanding of into an agreement, especially when this action is done after a particularly brief google search of the knowledge area.

The term is may have originated among neck-bearded keyboard-commando's, but its precise history is unclear.

"Why do you think they put those terms into the contract?"

"Oh, I dunno. Stephenson's Law I guess."
