> if this is such a clear ToS violation then maybe it shouldn’t have been approved?

Maybe user software shouldn't be enforcing arbitrary ToS, but should instead obey the user? Do we really want corporations colluding with each-other to enforce their whims over us through their products that we are surrounded by, and are becoming necessary for modern life? What next, disk firmware scanning for copyright violations?

I'm sorry if this comes off as harsh, but I am sick of people using the ToS (that a company can make up at will) as any kind of justification, pro- or against. They can and do write anything they want there.
