    Law is all about interpretation and what a reasonable person would think.

    I don’t think convincing a judge that “it was obvious there was a sign and they would have read it” would be very hard.

      I think it’s quite the opposite, a judge would mock you for such a lousy attempt. It’s pathetic, disconnecting the machine is a simple process and it ensures all patrons are safe, not just the ones who notice this tiny sign.

      A decent example would be a elderly customer who is visually impaired. They may already frequent this machine and know what buttons they gotta press for their favourite snack. Sure sometimes they get it wrong and something else pops out but that’s ok they aren’t too picky.

      But now introduce the danger of one of these options being an actual poison and the seller admitted they are aware they are selling poison among food? The judge would use this sign to make an example of you.
