Five phrases that should stop a product meeting

Each one hides a product decision with a legal question attached.

1. “We’ll add that in the fast follow.” Ask: what is the exposure for customers who sign up before then?
2. “Let’s reduce friction here.” Ask: is that step a consent, a warning or a verification?
3. “It’s just an experiment.” Ask: do the test groups see different prices, terms or disclosures?
4. “We already have the data.” Ask: what did we tell customers when we collected it?
5. “The partner handles compliance.” Ask: says who? Is it in the contract?
