Why would renting software be any different? If you rent a defective car, the company that rents it to you is still liable.

  Now (or at one time), you could buy Microsoft Office and use it without an internet connection. With this, maybe that option will be gone, companies can blame the EU for requiring a internet connection and the user is stuck being logged/spied on agreeing to this via an EUL.

    In your imagination maybe.

    A company cannot exempt itself from product liability with an EULA. Cloud services are also explicitly mentioned as covered.

    This is an absolutely terrible argument. So much shrinkwrapped software phones home these days well before this law. MS Office has required it for years! Look up MS Office XP (2001).
