It kind if begs the question, what would an ethical contract look like, in which the consumer actually had some say in her side of the “agreement” she’d signed onto by opening the shrink wrap? I can imagine some kind of representational authority haggling with the the software maker over terms, and hammering out an agreement. Sort of what union reps are supposed to do, or politicians acting in the public interest. I know, it’s a pipe dream.
