Amazon doesn't write laws, but they do write contracts though, which is what you're entering into and can be binding on you.
There's some interesting case law in the EU on software licenses recently in this area, but your mileage on that may vary depending on your jurisdiction. In Canada, for example, courts have generally accepted website EULAs as binding on site users. In the UK, there have been very few cases applicable to EULAs (obviously cases that deal with contracts generally would apply).
