Well, in a certain sideways sense, every legal interaction kinda is a matter of contract. The problem is that you don't get the right to choose whether you're a signatory or not, and the other party has the right to amend or update the contract at any time they choose. The problem is, unless you're a signatory to at least one of those contracts (by birth or by immigration), you have no rights at all. Once you're in, you really can't get out safely.

Basically your birth certificate is the checkbox on the EULA of lawdul society. Good Lord, I hate that I just thought of it that way, but it works so well as an analogy.
