Re: End user agreement revocation Welcome to MY legal dilemma ... if you examine the usual EULA's, you'll see that you agree to sell your soul to the devil, but NOTE that there seems to never be a "my backside hurts" clause. 
But legally, there seems to never be any "revocation" other than removing the software. In THIS case, even THAT doesn't buy back your soul, and THAT is what I have a problem with. We'll forget the right wing, left wing, "vendor", etc. Folks who know Nancy and I know we go beyond fair to our customers at our own expense, but such is NOT the province of seemingly anyone else.
What is particularly irksome though is that *WE* refused to be a party of the "agreement" with SONY and "First4" in which a number of other vendors agreed SOLELY to go after JUST the "rootkit" ... we nail the whole enchilada because we REFUSED to be a party to the "non-disclosure" ... we figured out what they were doing by our OWN means a while ago and refused to be a signatory to this "deal" by which ONLY the rootkit itself is removed, and not the REST.
But what *I* am angered about is that we can't give away our solution to this for FREE because that would legally expose us. THAT upsets me to no end given that I've already written the code. And we're going to be forced to BURN it.

| But still, it brings up the question - If there is no prohibition against a user ceasing agreement with the terms, it seems the user can revoke and thereby be free to - or even required - to remove the product.
Now if the license agreement does not specify irrevocation of agreement, then it seems that no prohibition would exist and the user would be able to declare "I no longer agree with the license terms".
This would probably be better argued by good lawyers at any rate. -- In Memoriam -NRK 1 FEB 1918 - 6 NOV 2005B-17 pilot -50 missions over Europe and North Africa - 347th Squadron, 99th Bomb Group - Husband, Father, Grandfather, Great Grandfather, friend --- A knight and gentleman gone to peace |
