In a previous post we discussed abusive click-wrap software license terms. Here is one attempt to fight back, adding the following notice when one purchases a program:
READ CAREFULLY. By accepting this payment you agree, on behalf of your employer, to release me from all obligations and waivers arising from any and all NON-NEGOTIATED agreements, licenses, terms-of-service, shrinkwrap, clickwrap, browsewrap, confidentiality, non-disclosure, non-compete and acceptable use policies (”BOGUS AGREEMENTS”) that I have entered into with your employer, its partners, licensors, agents and assigns, in perpetuity, without prejudice to my ongoing rights and privileges. You further represent that you have the authority to release me from any BOGUS AGREEMENTS on behalf of your employer.
So far, our company has never received one of these notices when a customer purchases. Wonder what would happen if we did?
