legalese

legalese n.  Dense, pedantic verbiage in a language
   description, product specification, or interface standard; text
   that seems designed to obfuscate and requires a {language
   lawyer} to {parse} it.  Though hackers are not afraid of high
   information density and complexity in language (indeed, they rather
   enjoy both), they share a deep and abiding loathing for legalese;
   they associate it with deception, {suit}s, and situations in
   which hackers generally get the short end of the stick.
