For most people in most places,  blindly clicking "yup" on the
terms of service is exactly what they should do.

99% will not get into legal trouble.

For the rest, they should go into court and testify:

Q: Did you accept the terms of service?

A: I don't recall.

Q: Did you click on the button that said you accept the terms of
service?

A: I don't specifically recall, because I never read those
things, but if there was a button, I probably pressed it.

Q: You don't read contracts?

A: Those aren't real contracts.
