                                              No disrespect to the power of 12clicks ... but do you really think he can get somebody banned like that ?

I don't see a carved out exemption to normal contract law. Normal contract law says as long as you willingly click the I agree button you are agreeing to the software's terms. Maybe this law should have widened the procedural unconscionability aspects of "agreeing" to a software agreement. Also, maybe used the central theory of "trespass" for computers (as some California courts have attempted) in making some spyware behavior illegal.
