That’s a very good point. Not that anyone in power cares, but no EULA should be able to strip you of your fundamental rights as an American citizen.

It’s a contract. People sign away fundamental rights all the time - see military recruiting contracts.

It really isn’t the government’s problem that people are too stupid to actually read the EULA before continuing to use the device.

The company isn't forcing anyone to sign that boilerplate. People are free to give up their rights. If you don't feel waiving your rights is worth the use of the product/service, don't buy the product/service.

If enough customers object, companies will no longer be able to get away with this.

Yup. Like the loss of your freedom of speech on public participation communications systems.
