which .RAR opener is the best .RAR opener

[Foxscotch]

It'd be really hard to convict someone of anything when all the signs are there to say it's fine with the owner.

it's not "convicting," this isn't a criminal offense. but the owner has not said in any way that it's fine to breach their terms of service
you admittedly may win the suit if you get a jury full of other people who also feel entitled to use other people's work for free without their permission, but I wouldn't count on that

Also the license on the website has no mention of an obligation to purchase the software after the trial: http://www.win-rar.com/gtb_priv.html?&L=0

"In particular, the Customer must determine if the RAR Software runs under his operating system and in his desired hardware and software environment. He promises to acquire a Licence for the RAR Software only if and when he has assured himself that he can answer the above-mentioned questions with 'yes'."

if these things are illegal, they're illegal, and that's the end of it. this isn't about whether or not they will enforce it
and in the case of those laws it's also very unlikely that a jury would find you guilty, because those laws are ridiculous

okay?
so in other words by technicality its legal

seems to me you just keep arguing because you want to win on the fact that because it says you have to pay for it, that its illegal to not pay eventually

[Foxscotch]

no...

[shitlord]

no...

yes...

you said yourself:

[Foxscotch]

yes...
you said yourself:

that doesn't make it legal. and more importantly, I said that about those two laws, specifically. it does not apply to this hypothetical winrar lawsuit

[auzman466]

out of the box, you can shoot somebody in the face with a gun. I'm pretty sure that's still illegal, though

damn foxscotch

Did you even read that sentence?
I can chop off context too!

you shouldn't be allowed to have fun

Wow guys, look at him. He says you shouldn't be allowed to have fun!

That sentence states that you should not buy a license if you have no verified that WinRar will completely function on your computer. It does not state any obligation to purchase the software after the trial is over.

No, it clearly says he promises to if yes. This is not a simple matter of inversion. In simpler terms...

IF it works on your computer, you DO PROMISE to purchase a liscense.

Promise does imply an obligation, in fact. An obligation only met if it runs, sure, but I doubt many people have issues running WinRar.

Wow, you all suck at reading comprehension. Jesus, I'm done trying to explain simple concepts to you people.
