I think "I dropped it" counts as an accident, whereas "I dropped it while snowboarding" counts as negligence.

That's the whole point of this specific warranty though, it's for accidental damage that the user causes. I can't speak to the specifics of this insurer or policy, but I can say that my own accidental damage policy immediately replaced my laptop's keyboard when it stopped working so well, even when I couldn't point to a specific spill or toddler fist impact that caused it, just a buildup of abuse over time. As someone with children who habitually break things, I find it to be worth it. YMMV.
