Reading and understanding EULAs for every tool you use is a full time job that requires a law degree.

Even in the age of the internet there is still a thing called the "warranty of merchantability" which says the thing you buy should be the thing you expected to buy. A stereo should play music, a phone should be a phone, a pizza should be a pizza.
