A useful bit of software I’ve discovered today; EULAylzer points out the key points in EULAs, and finds out if yuo are about to become a slave or even worse, if you are going to install some spyware.
When installing software, you are often made to sign a End User License Agreement (EULA) which is sort of a contract. This often has copyright information in, as well as warrenty information, but occasionly has things extremely well hidden in; like giving the software the right to serve adware (pop-ups) to you.
This software simply scans EULAs, so for example a scan of eXeems EULA brings up that it comes with web-based ads. It also gives them interest levels, for example those were 4/10; though I think that is low.
This is quite good software, though I doubt that it will always work.
Sorry for making this post so brief, just I’m going away for the weekend.
