This is quite disturbing, thanks for sharing it, Matti.

As sad as I am to say this, I have to agree w/Dustin. This stuff ain't
gonna change. It's like software EULA's where folks never read them but if
they did, they'd be supremely alarmed. They all pretty much say the same
thing- "yes, you've purchased this software, but we still own it." The
general populace is still in the dark about what EULAs really say as noone
ever reads them. I only got to read them as I was doing Software QA for a
product like 13yrs. ago & the EULA was part of the documentation testing
portion of my test cases. I worked for the company & I was still in shock.
As much as I try to bring awareness to other end users about this, they
still never read them. I guess they just can't be bothered.

cheers,
--miguel
