Most countries have legislated consumer protections that cannot be excluded
e.g. goods purchased must be fit for purpose, have a warranty, be liable for
damages caused by defects and so on.  For a product to be sold in those
countries they must comply with local law whatever licenses say or don't say.
Software manufacturers and vendors are not a protected species.

Even GPL acknowledges its disclaimers are limited 'TO THE EXTENT
PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW'.  Charge for warranty it's reasonable
to assume consumer law would apply.
