I wasn't making an argument, just pointing out that (contrary to what was

human ever sees it.

Under german law, a message can't be binding if it has not been
sent and received by both a 'person'. Law distinguishes between
'natural' persons (=humans) and 'juristical' persons (=companies, 
associations, etc.) which also involves a human. Machines can't
have contracts under german law.
