What is iTunes capable of?

Freakonomics claims the latest iTunes licensing agreement contains the following idiocy (my interpretation, not theirs):

1. Regarding WMD

… for any purposes prohibited by United States law, including, without limitation, the development, design, manufacture, or production of nuclear missiles or chemical or biological weapons.

2. Nuclear, mission critical and lifesaving applications

The Apple software is not intended for use in the operation of nuclear facilities, aircraft navigation or communication systems, life support machines, or other equipment in which the failure of the Apple software could lead to death, personal injury, or severe physical or environmental damage.

Makes you want to lock the attorneys and the government beaurocrats in the same room for life.
