About Redline

REDLINE

Why this site exists, and what it is right now.

Companies update their Terms of Service constantly. Almost none of it gets a real announcement. Redline exists to catch the changes that matter, show the exact before-and-after language, and explain what it means in plain English — twice a month, not as breaking news.

What "filed" means here

Every entry on the docket is meant to represent a real, dated Terms of Service or privacy policy change: what the clause said before, what it says now, when it changed, and whether the company told anyone. Nothing gets published as a filing unless that comparison can be shown, not just claimed.

Where the docket stands right now

The three filings currently on the homepage are real, sourced research — not fictional demonstrations. Each carries a Source Trail linking to the primary policy page and independent reporting. Two are marked Verified; one is marked Partially Verified because Redline has confirmed the current document but hasn't yet independently retrieved and diffed the prior version. That distinction is the point: a filing only claims what it can actually back up.

Facts vs. interpretation

Every filing separates two things: What Changed, a factual description of the clause language itself, and Why It Matters, Redline's analysis of the consequence. The second is clearly marked as interpretation so readers can agree, disagree, or reach their own conclusion without mistaking our read for the company's words.

Status labels

Every filing carries one of four labels. Verified — previous and current documents were compared directly and support the filing. Partially Verified — the change is supported, but one piece of evidence (usually the prior-version diff) is still missing. Unverified — a reported change was found, but Redline hasn't confirmed the underlying documents yet. Demo / Sample — fictional or prototype content, and never presented as a real filing.

What Redline is not

Redline is not a law firm and does not provide legal advice. A filing describes what changed in a document; it is not a legal opinion about your specific situation. If a change affects you materially, talk to a lawyer.
