thereof, was
to make sure
that users are given ample notice for any unexpected material changes."
mircea_popescu: "Since
the existing
ToS includes
the provision for pirate's ability
to change interest rates "with notice",
this latest change in interest rates does not violate
the
terms of
the bet contract, even
though it did not itself have a 30 day notice.
