Walmart on Twitter with Terms and Conditions

This is a very interesting development. A huge corporate like Walmart is embracing twitter as a customer communication platform. But customers are greeted with 3,000+ words of terms and conditions. Even the twitter profiles link to the terms and "discussion policy"

It is fantastic to see large organisations using twitter. But are they really connecting themselves with their customers by taking this step or making themselves look even more like a corporate giant and bombarding us with a hefty set of terms and conditions?
