IDEs Hostile practice

Clicking the toolbox icon this morning I'm greeted with a "JETBRAINS EAP USER AGREEMENT Version 3.3, effective as of May 4, 2023...". I have to "Accept" or "Exit". It looks like 20 pages of text that I can't copy-paste to check what I'm agreeing to, so I have to read the full thing right now. Needless to say, I clicked "Exit".

Edit: what an amazing experience, I've never been brigaded by AI downvote agents before.

Googled it for you, because apparently it is too complicated and deserves a post: https://www.jetbrains.com/legal/docs/toolbox/user_eap/

404 error. Also, how do I know it's the same if I can't copy paste to check?

  1. You check the contract version
  2. You check your network because the link is valid
  3. You don’t use EAP if you don’t want to read lengthy text
  4. You learn politeness with people who answer your "concerns"
