The updated terms now explicitly prohibit the deployment of AI Agents to access, use, interact with, or take action on Comcast services unless Comcast expressly grants permission. This includes automated activities such as obtaining information, making requests, monitoring activity, copying, downloading, scraping, or data mining the services. The agreement also prohibits AI Agents from accepting terms on a user's behalf or engaging in support or sales interactions. Users who currently use automation tools or third-party integrations with Comcast services may need to seek express permission from Comcast or discontinue such automated access.

"EXCEPT AS SPECIFICALLY PROVIDED IN THIS AGREEMENT, WE AND THE RELEASED ENTITIES WILL HAVE NO LIABILITY TO YOU OR TO ANY OTHER PERSON OR ENTITY FOExcerpt from Comcast's Terms of Service
REGULATORY LANDSCAPE: Limitation of liability clauses in consumer telecommunications agreements engage state consumer protection statutes and common law unconscionability doctrines. Several state courts have found limitation of liability provisions unenforceable where they effectively insulate a party from accountability for gross negligence or willful misconduct in consumer contracts. FCC rules and state public utility commission regulations may impose minimum liability standards for cable and telecommunications service interruptions that cannot be contractually waived. GOVERNANCE EXPOSURE: Medium. The $500 cap on equipment damage liability even for gross negligence and willful misconduct, and the exclusive remedy designation for service interruptions, represent significant contractual limitations on subscriber recovery. Enforceability may be challenged in states where courts apply heightened scrutiny to such clauses in consumer adhesion contracts. JURISDICTION FLAGS: California, New York, and New Jersey have consumer protection frameworks and state utility commission regulations that may limit the enforceability of liability caps and exclusive remedy provisions in consumer telecommunications agreements. State-specific provisions in the agreement itself, including credits for Connecticut, Maine, New Jersey, New York, and Ohio residents for TV service interruptions, indicate that Comcast has identified jurisdiction-specific regulatory requirements. CONTRACT AND VENDOR IMPLICATIONS: The Released Entities definition, which encompasses service providers, affiliates, suppliers, employees, agents, contractors, distributors, licensors, and business partners, extends the liability limitation structure to a broad set of third parties. Procurement teams contracting for services that rely on Comcast infrastructure should assess whether the Released Entities construct limits their ability to pursue claims against Comcast-affiliated vendors. COMPLIANCE CONSIDERATIONS: Legal teams should assess whether the exclusive remedy and liability cap provisions satisfy applicable state minimum liability standards for cable and telephone services, particularly in states where regulatory requirements for service credit calculations differ from the agreement's pro-rata credit mechanism.
