ToS != EULA. An EULA has not been tested in court. Terms of Services have been tested ever since the phone companies have existed. All those broadband companies who cap bandwidth or limit how much you can download? Those are in the Terms of Service.

You're right, I was using the wrong terminology.

No. The Glider application was judged to constitute copyright infringement. Distributing an application which has no purpose besides to commit copyright infringement, and generating funds off of it is illegal. This has nothing to do with your property. Blizzard is not suing people who run Glider, nor are they saying what you can't do and do with your computer.

I read the article in it's entirety previously and I don't agree with the judge's decision. I do however stand corrected on some of the details, thank you.
