Caveat: this is not universal and depends on the juridiction. For example in France a software/service editor can only really attack a user if he is infringing on copyrighted stuff. Outside of that the EULAs only allow it to ban/remove access to its services without risk of legal retaliation. And by infringing copyright I mean redistribution of copyrighted material, not downloading and using it. I am sure this is the case in many other countries. | ||

This is again, wrong. EULA is just another word for "contract", and I'm not aware of any countries that have banned contracts. Of course, specific EULAs may not be enforceable in some countries because they contain terms prohibited by law. But the concept of EULAs - a contract where you agree to certain terms in exchange for license to use software is enforceable in basically all countries. |
