That's still a license agreement that I have to abide by.
It just so happens, as I said, that the license is very favorable to the end user. Perhaps if I state it like this:

I have to agree that I don't have to agree to anything in order to use the software.

The reality is I have to agree to those terms no matter how foolish such an agreement appears to be.
