Tech by PC

I saw this a few places, but a good writeup about it on Veritablelife blog. I wrote a previous post about the things I liked and disliked about the browser, and this has to top the list of dislikes. I think that the EULA is completely unenforceable, however I am not a lawyer and I wouldn’t want to have to fight a corporation like Google about it. The reason I’m not worried about this at all is that Google would be plain stupid to actually try to enforce this or steal someone’s content just because they used Chrome to enter it. Can you imagine the amount of negative publicity surrounding such a move? There’s already enough of it out there about the EULA itself.

Just give it a little more time and Google will have developed an EULA specifically for Chrome that is more sane. Even Google doesn’t bother reading these things before they go out, they just copy and paste, so I’m surprised so many users did as well.
