> "my house, my rules"

A website is in no way "your house".




Why not?

Essentially, if I build and host a hobby site, it's my digital property. You have the right to see what are the conditions to visit (essentially: fetch) it and if you don't agree, you are free to go.


That's in no way comparable with walking into somebody's home. Publishing a website is a form of communication.


Regardless of the silent downvotes, it's still true.
