No, They are not contracts. They are agreements. An EULA is called an EULA and not an EULC for a reason. Contracts and agreements are different animals.

>Contracts are covered under Equity Law, Admiralty Law, and several codifications of various levels of law in the U.S. You can go to prison for violating the terms of a contract (breach of contract). You can be fined extensively, both criminally and in civil courts. It's rare. It's unlikely. But the ability does exist, and it's usually this "force of possibility" that keeps people legal / honest.

>It really is law because it is contract-based.

Rick, if you don't know what you are talking about then please don't imply you do.

An EULA is an agreement. You cannot be put in jail for breaching an EULA nor is it a criminal act (not even in the US), just because it is not a Contract.
Its a civil issue in court and is handled as such.

So unless you know your legal stuff, please stop confusing everyone with nonsense.
