    The difference is that, if you try to install a piece of software, you’re inevitably asked to agree to the terms of a EULA. If you click Yes, like everybody does, it’s assumed that you have read and agreed to the full text of the contract, like no one has ever done ever. If you click no, you don’t get to install that software generally speaking. This is not how contracts work. If you don’t agree to, or sign a contract, the other party is not allowed to execute the beneficial parts to them at your expense anyway. I like the app, and I’m okay with paying money for things, but this strikes me as just a little shifty.
