Is that true? I can't find any source for it, except very specific cases where the language and contents of the contract matter.
IANAL; However Usually the contracts have a severability clause, meaning even if some parts of that contract are null and void the rest of it stands minus the parts that are illegal. Does that mean those clauses are also null and void depending on locality? Again IANAL, but I believe it's pretty settled contract law at least in the US.
It's a pretty common clause in most contracts, so I'm not sure why you're so confident that they aren't used in EULAs
Precisely for this reason?
I...misread the previous message. Makes sense.
So that the entire contract isn't void if one provision is struck down.
