Links: A Child Looks at Clickwrap Licenses
Posted by Ernest Miller on Monday, April 05 @ 13:29:03 EDT Contracts
Eric J. Heels, lawyer and proprietor of the LawLawLaw blawg, recounts the experience his children recently had with clickwrap licenses (The 'Duh' of Shrinkwrap Licenses). His children had purchased some computer games via eBay and upon installation were confronted by a clickwrap license:
So my 10-year-old took the lead and started installing the software. When he got to the license agreement, he quipped, "Let's see, it says I have to click 'accept' to continue. Well DUH! It's not like I have any CHOICE! They've already got my money! OK, I'm clicking 'accept.'" [emphasis in original]
If only judges could see the issue as clearly.
