Actually, it was only found to be inferred in the case where the
"insult" was made in a specific context that referred to the contract
(e.g. it was obviously "meant to" trigger the joining conditions).
The judge there suggested that if an action was primarily for another
purpose, say posting a message for something else, that it *wouldn't*
be consent for joining.
