If the EULA is so horribly unethical then why isn't there are groundswell
of anti-EULA sentiment. It certainly worked for the Focebook ToCs that
caused a public outcry last year, and they were subsequently changed. Apple
had a similar episode with it's iBooks EULA and it was subsequently changed.

Millions of people, including many all over Europe are more than happy to
abide by the EULA as it stands now.
