EULAs — End User License Agreements — are those agreements that you usually sign by clicking “I Agree” on a software installation. They are usually complex legal documents (one practically needs a law degree to pour through them).
JavaCool Software has come up with a nifty tool that actually parses EULAs into key areas, like Advertising, Privacy, Search Terms, and assigns “interest levels” (basically, almost like a threat level). The basic version is free, and is available here.
