Hi Rick,

There are significant differences between European countries and the US in regards of what is specified in EULA. E.g.
https://www.lexology.com/library/detail.aspx?g=d1ff4369-afcc-4879-97fa-7a8afd8b3380

I'm convinced that US EULAs in China hold little to no value.

The Chinese government even wants the source code to be available to them if you enter the Chinese market. We have been looking into this the last 12 months.

Walter,
