If someone ask you for a ride and you tell them not to roll down the window and they say "lol, nope" and still get on the car. They can't be mad if you stop the car and tell them to get out when they roll down the window laughing hysterically at your face. Pressing escape means nothing in this case. The Verge's writer was acting stupid on purpose. This is like kids who think that crossing their fingers behind their back means they aren't bound to a promise. It is wishful thinking.

Add: oh, and BTW, there's a reason almost all terms of service start with "By using this software you agree to…" the legal fact is using the service not clicking on the agree button. That's just legal ammunition that companies use to prove on court that the user was aware of the legal contract. EULAs uset to be sheets of paper on a cardboard box along side CDs. No one had to click on an agree button. By buying and using the software, those were the terms you agreed to. Almost all contracts include that sort of language because the use is the fact that supports the legal contract. Law is just leaving facts and agreements on paper, facts overrule legalese, that is actually the basis used by courts to dismiss enforcement of EULAs. Like how signers aren't legally bound to fulfill irrational or unachievable agreements, or language intentionally obtuse or ambiguous.
