This might be a touch question and I have not been able to find an answer online, but when a person agrees to a licence agreement or terms of use during registration, are they responsible to having read the whole document. Supposing a specific website had a licence agreement some 80 pages long and somewhere in it it would say in sophisticated language that the website will take a certain sum of money from your account for registering. Could the person sue the website and get their money back, or are they held responsible for reading the whole thing? is there a law which protects against such inintended contracts?

of course you are responsible for reading every contract you sign. even if you sign electronically.
