That all-caps section in any Windows EULA since W95 saying essentially "if it breaks in any way it's all your fault"?

That all-caps section in any Windows EULA since W95 saying essentially "if it breaks in any way it's all your fault"?
- jodrellblank 8y agoThe "NO WARRANTIES" and "LIMITATION OF LIABILITY" sections? The ones which appear (to a layperson) to match the MIT license "NO WARRANTY" section, or the Mozilla Public License "indemnify all Contributers" and "disclaimer of warranty", and sections 7, 8 of the Apache License 2, and sections 15, 16 of the GPL v3? If so, there's a lot of people stating "it's impossible to build better software than ours", and while I disagree that's what it communicates, if that is what it means, it's bad-faith to try and single Microsoft out on that count, isn't it?
- Piskvorrr 8y agoI thought it was the canonical example - not that they're the only one.
