If someone were to hack into micrsoft and put your a fvcking moron in the EULA, how long do you think it would take before it got noticed?
days? months? year?

Ive the the M$ EULA once when I was sh!t bored and it's actually pretty funny towards the end, theres a bit about how it shouldnt be used in submarines, hospitals or nuclear plants and another about how it's not M$'s fault if Java crashes on you :)

I don't plan to follow most of the crap in the EULA so why bother reading it;)

M$ lawyers would find it instantly. They spank off to legal text.

Anyway, I'm trying to read them more often, paying particular attention to &quot;spyware&quot; and privacy statements. I also want to make sure I never inadvertantly sell my soul to M$. ;)

What's a EULA? One of those things that comes with software when you buy it in the store? Heh. I can't remember the last time I saw one... This is the only license that's needed, and MS should use it. It'd make their software much better.

Heh, my friend was informed by his friend that he needs a license agreement for anything he releases (graphics, fonts, etc.) so here is his license agreement:

&quot;the ZIWTRA B00GIE LICENSE (ZBL)

2.) You are not required to give credit to the original author.
3.) You may not hold the author responsible for any damage done by

Yes, always. But not after the word Microsoft.
