As I have said before Contract law isnt as simple as here here are the Terms of the contract therefore they are lawful and we have a right to enforce them.

I cannot enter into a contract with someone who is termanally ill to help them die because it is unlawful.

IF this clause in the contract with VM was deemed unlawful/unfair etc VM could not rely on it in court.

I do not believe they can rely on it in court.

It is a sad state of affairs when people think companies make the laws in our country and that what is written in commercial contracts/EULAS/AUPs etc is the law.

Absolute rubbish.

Contract Law specialists are not rubber stampers who got exceptional marks for English comprehension at school.

I do conceed that generally contracts are written by lawyers and so generally they contain terms that are lawful which might give rise to your your belief that whatever is in the contract goes.
