EULA trolling

Cory Doctorow has a fine post today about the potential for the patent trolling industry to evolve into an even more vampiric EULA trolling business. Every time you click on an end user license agreement, or indeed enter (some) shops or buy (some) merchandise you agree to a series of idiotically onerous terms and conditions which one day someone might build up into a portfolio of things they try to enforce for money. Like patents. His article also includes the following EULA...

"READ CAREFULLY. By reading this article, 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"

...which I reproduce in full here because, hey, it's worth a try. Don't ask me what the EULA actually says, though, I fell asleep halfway through reading the damned thing.
