> I'm amused that it made me accept the terms and conditions without any indication of who I am

as far as i’m aware, that’s fully binding and often an accepted practise - take Minecraft’s server software, where you must accept the EULA with a text flag before running

but if an agent automatically accepts an EULA for you, is it binding?

  • It would have to be. And it's not new in the law at all. The principal-agent problem was one of the main enablers of the golden age of piracy. But that doesn't mean it isnt a solved problem now (in the law and practically)
