Pretty sure GOG has similar terms, too. The difference is that they’re effectively unenforceable with the lack of DRM. But the “you’re only buying a licence to use the software” verbiage is pretty universal, and old at this point. In fact, I’m pretty sure I’ve got NES games somewhere with nearly identical phrasing in their manuals.


That’s exactly how I wound up looking at Lemmy again just now. I’m not supposed to be here right now, I’m supposed to be replying to a text message.
