Man Struck Dead For Bearing False Witness After Clicking 'I Have Read And Accept These Terms And Conditions'

BOSTON, MA - Local man Justin Fuller immediately fell dead after clicking "I have read and accept these terms and conditions" when installing a new piece of software Friday morning.

The Lord and Sovereign Judge, from which nothing is hidden, could tell Fuller had not even glanced at the twelve pages of legalese, and thus his checking of the box was a lie against which God took immediate vengeance.

"This is very scary," said software analyst Terrell Bennett. "It makes me wonder if other people have not been reading the end-user license agreement. It's an important contract between the licensor and the purchaser, and it could be chaos if people didn't understand all the ramifications of what they were agreeing to. If you click you accept those terms and conditions without having read them, you're lying to the software vendor, to your Macbook Pro, and to the Creator of us all who is always watching."

CompuGlobal, the maker of the software Fuller was installing, has informed Fuller's wife she will get a full refund for the computer program since the EULA was not properly agreed to. "Hopefully everyone in the future will take the time to read the terms and conditions," said David Zimmerman, the lawyer who wrote the EULA.

"When we put the contracts in the install step, we assume everyone reads them and it is legally binding," Zimmerman added before immediately falling dead.
