11/17/2004: "Software Licensing has changed"


In downloading Oracle for the Mac, I was presented with a software license agreement that included this statement:

I will not use the Programs for, and will not allow the Programs to be used for, any purposes prohibited by United States law, including, without limitation, for the development, design, manufacture or production of nuclear, chemical or biological weapons of mass destruction.
Call me a naive Canadian, but have we really reached the point where I have to see this in a software license?
