Service License Agreement: What governs the limits of the reasonable?

I'll start with an absurd example:

you register on the site, indicate your full name, e-mail, home address and accept the license agreement (put a bird) without reading it . According to the civil code, this is considered a valid contract between you and the service.

Then it turns out that the public offer says something like this:

I am torn away from all my property (movable and immovable) and all my savings in favor of Dirty Hands LLC. I undertake to re-register documents for real estate no later than 30 days after the conclusion of the contract. "LLC Gryaznye Ruki" has the right to demand the execution of this agreement in court.


What's stopping you from writing like that?

Of course, this is extreme. However, it may well be written: registration on the site is paid, the user must pay the amount of $50 for registration no later than 3 days from the date of registration. Or some service will be sold to you (you will think that it is free, but it turned out to be paid and this is spelled out in the contract).

The situation was not taken from the ceiling: one site provided me with a service and now demands to pay for it (it is in the agreement, but I did not read it). In theory they are right? What if they wrote the amount of 1 million dollars?

PS
Now I'm not discussing how easy it will be for them to demand money from me. It is clear that they are unlikely to do so. However, the principle itself is interesting - are there really no sensible restrictions for licensing agreements?

Apparently, you can write anything you want, but in case of non-compliance, you will have to demand this through the court, and the court will decide whether these requirements are justified or not ...

You can’t write about a million dollars, about the rejection of property and kidneys with a liver, too.
A public offer has a lot of restrictions, i.e. The situation you describe is a scam.
Too lazy to look for documents and links to laws.

I can assume that when providing the service, you should have indicated in an understandable way (and not by clause 22.34.313 of the contract) that it is paid. Probably somewhere in the law on consumer rights it is, I don't remember.
