Depends, in US (and now UK maybe too) I'd agree on yes, but in EU I wouldn't know, since even selling 2nd hand licence is allowed and perfectly legal, and also any shit written in an EULA doesn't make it legal no matter how small is written and how many times someone might have signed it.

Anyway for any EU citizen here just get in contact with your regional consumer centre for dispute resolution:

I'd buy a dirty cheap Ubi game on Steam, so they won't ever remove the account since it would be a fraud to Steam

...and not open source... thank you, but no thank you!

Also from their FAQs:

Who’s behind WireMin?

The WireMin team consists of a group of experienced technical experts and Web 3.0 advocates all over the world.

Web3 = crypto

Not a single personal name on their website.

Marked the domain as crypto-scam in uBlock and good riddance. Unironically thank you!

I wish Matrix/Element focused a bit more on their experimental P2P version, released as experimental in 2020 and then left it in the drawer :/
