Almost anywhere, if you use a baseball bat to squash somebody's head, you are
bound to trouble. Even if it is not told so in the user's manual. It called the
law.
BTW, the same applies even if the bat is not your own.
If the law says that electronically accepting a EULA is binding, that's the way
it is.
In France there is a general legal principle that states that nobody is
supposed to ignore the law (understanding it is another matter unfortunately).
For this reasons, all laws, decrees, etc are published in a free newspaper that
anybody can consult in any city hall; you can also subscribe to to it for a
zero fee. The same texts are now available online (at least the recent ones). I
do not know if this is true for other countries, but it makes sense, anyway.
Best,
François
