IMHO, it is disrespectful to Ubuntu users to present an "Agreement" as "Agreed" by *default* ( as one can see in the mockup attached ).

Solutions:

i) don't call it "Agreement" ( suggestion: call it "Important disclaimer" )

ii) call it "Agreement" but require the user to *agree* the conditions to turn them on (*)

(*) for example, the first time that you navigate certain pages, Firefox popups security messages with a "don't show this the next time" check box marked.

In a similar way, after navigating a couple of pages, Firefox could popup the message:

"Firefox 3 provides a poerful antiphising service that can protect you from the bad guys , blah blah blah ... Do you wan't to enable it?"

If the user answer yes, then FF should display the [in]famous agreement that the user should *positevely* *agree*.

And every one happy.
