I'm not the GP, but yes. As long as you were willing to break that agreement and take on any penalties incurred. If the device is yours, you can smash it on the ground even if the agreement prohibits it. However, you've now broken the agre

The embedded font renders very poorly in Windows. The page lags a ton while scrolling. Some of the demos linked freeze my browser for several minutes if I click on them. In Opera none of the examples work (no output at all).

Making a mistake is not the same thing as trolling. Trolling is being willfully wrong, usually to gain some benefit (eliciting a pleasurable response, financial gain). Showing that they were incorrect does not show they are a troll.
