A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Depends, in US (and now UK maybe too) I'd agree on yes, but in EU I wouldn't know, since even selling 2nd hand licence is allowed and perfectly legal, and also any shit written in an EULA doesn't make it legal no matter how small is written and how many times someone might have signed it.

Anyway for any EU citizen here just get in contact with your regional consumer centre for dispute resolution:

And in Australia I’m sure a complaint to the ACCC would go a long way
