And how well do you really think the defence "Well, I really didn't understand the fine print..." will hold up in court? In fact, a company in Texas was recently fined $173,000 for failing to comply with an EULA. If it was possible to circumvent the EULA, don't you think they would have tried?!?!?
I'm not a lawyer, and I don't play one on TV. I think you're probably right, unless you have a really good legal team to argue the case and carry it up to the Supreme Court.

I just think it's wrong, by my own standards.
