EULAs are not law. They are an agreement between a business and a customer, and breaking them is wholly separate from breaking the law.

The US Dept. of Justice has determined that violating a website's terms of service is a felony under CFAA 1030(a)2(c).

Breaking EULA is considered a crime the same extremely broad way. It just depends on how rich/powerful you are if the district attorney in $venue can be bought and convinced to do your bidding. They don't normally enforce these things.

I'm not sure which way you're falling on this, but I'll take this whole thread as evidence that everyone is punitive.

I frankly don't believe the people who claim to hate the cops, all you have to do is present them with someone they detest and they reveal their lust for "the law", obscene punishment and violence.

And some EULAs contains clauses that are illegal in some jurisdictions and therefore cannot be enforced.
