Is clicking on the "I have finished reading the terms and conditions" button considered a lie if one has not read them?
It is permissible to click the "agree to terms" button without reading if the user is already aware of their content, and this is not considered a lie. However, if they are not aware of the content, and this could lead to harm for the user or the program owners, or violate a condition they have agreed to, then they must read the terms first to avoid falling into a lie or error, because lying is forbidden due to the harm it entails, and speech is a means to achieve purposes.
