EFF on EULA’s

The EFF has just produced a neat guide to some of the more onerous terms in software EULAs (End User License Agreement). Thats the stuff you see pop up before you click “ok”.
EFF: Dangerous Terms: A User’s Guide to EULAs

One aspect that they left out, which I’m guessing is in a lof of EULA’s, is a waiver of your rights to sue. Instead your rights would be replaced with a requirement of binding arbitration — perhaps at your expense, perhaps at an arbitrer the software maker chooses, and perhaps even forcing you to not disclose the results of arbitration.
