The click-wrap conundrum
Mark Rasch, 2005-10-24

Suppose you are setting up a website to deliver the latest software, product, or service. Before the site goes live, you go to your lawyer (of course you do, don't you?) who reviews your online privacy policy, your online security policy, and your policy regarding collecting information from or about children. Your lawyer reviews the site overall for anything that might be considered or interpreted a fraudulent or deceptive practice. Of course, if it were up to lawyers, the only content on the Internet would be in the form of disclaimers.

I must say I agree with Todd Knarr. Normal contracts involvve both parties EULAs don't seem to do that which in my opinion make them more likly to damage one party over another. I must say I stand behind the FTC on this one.
