I should make clear that the analysis was not mine. I just thought that
it was probably true and wanted to get some opinions. Riding my bike in
to school today I thought ... wait, doesn't a EULA remove this liability
for the software vendor? So you have people buying commercial software
for the sole purpose of being able to place blame, while at the same
time all blame is being shed by the software company via the EULA. I
imagine that sfotware vendors and companies pen other agreements, but is
there really any case for accountability?
