There is a big controversy going on now with WindowsXP new license agreement. It's in the fine print, only readable AFTER you open the package; and it says in effect: " you give Microsoft the right to come into your machine, while you are on the net, to UPDATE software for you". A bunch of contract lawyers say this is a bad contract , but you can't return the software once you open it.
That is obviously a paraphrase -- does anyone have a cut-n-paste or verbatim copy of that text? I'd like to see it.
Try this: http://www.noccc.org/bytes/minutes/v01/598.html -- $|=1;while(1){print pack("h*",'75861647f302d4560275f6272797f3');sleep(1); for(1..16){for(8,32,8,7){print chr($_);}select(undef,undef,undef,.05);}}
