That all packages in the archive are (or should be) Free accounts for 12% of the terms (28 of 239 words). So if the terms are made visible to everyone as a way of telling everyone that the packages are Free, it's not a particularly efficient way of doing that.

Meanwhile, the terms begin by saying "Canonical Ltd. provides the PPA Service to you", but that's not really true, because I don't have a PPA. It also says "Failure to comply with these TOS may result in account revocation", which is not reasonable because -- as someone who doesn't have a PPA -- I was never presented with those terms, let alone accepted them. These are not problems with the terms themselves, they're a problem with me being able to access them.
