Comment 381 for bug 269656

"And a lot of yelling as well, but that's almost the case on passionate legal matters."

I can't resist pointing out that http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/legal/eula/firefox-en.html too contains quite a bit of YELLING. :-)

A lot of the suggestions here, and the display-EULA-on-first-run all assume that the first time the software is run, it will be by the primary user. What if I ask someone else to install Ubuntu for me, and that someone else happens to open Firefox? What if on some system with Ubuntu pre-installed, someone at the shop starts the system in front of the customer, opens Firefox, and dismisses whatever comes up? What if I give my used computer to someone else? What about computers used by multiple people? Any do-something-on-first-run solution cannot ensure that some information will be communicated to all users.
