Specht v. Netscape, 306 F.3d 17 (2d Cir. 2002), is a ruling at the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit regarding the enforceability of clickwrap software licenses under contract law. The court held that merely clicking on a download button does not show assent to license terms, if those terms were not conspicuous and if it was not explicit to the consumer that clicking meant agreeing to the license.
