You can pretend there's no difference between this and a computer virus, but there clearly is.
The users of this software pull it, explicitly, voluntarily. The author says it doesn't serve any particular purpose, and in using it you understand that. the software itself did nothing malicious, it just stopped working. It's not the same thing as slapping a license on a computer virus and forcibly foisting it onto an unwitting victim. It's not naive legalese loophole workaround thinking. When you choose to use the software you agree to abide by the license, which includes no promise of utility whatsoever.
