That is, indeed, presumptious.

Apple's forthcoming news app has been criticised over claims the company is hoodwinking bloggers into accepting its terms and conditions.

An unsolicited email from Apple inviting publishers to join the service presumes acceptance of the terms, unless they actively opt out.

It requires them to cover Apple if legal issues arise, among other things.

Apple, which is due to launch the app later this year, refused to comment on the row. Apple News App Terms and Conditions Presumed, Unless You Opt Out [bbc.co.uk]
