has sort of "signed the contract" for you with anyone who creates any content. This is
why in my view copyright is illegitimate because it is really a forced contract.
As for the terms in the software, it is gray area. Read this:

to) that contract. If the author says you can only use his software if
you agree to (sign) the contract, but you use it without agreeing to the
contract, then you aren't infringing on a contract, but you are using
his software without meeting his terms. Does it matter if his terms
amount to a demand for payment, or merely that you agree to his contract?
