Only if it's a "license" to do something regulated by government. Like
a permit to run a public lottery or become a gun dealer. Such permits
from state are neither contracts nor property rights. Moglen and RMS
managed to bullshit you into believing that software belongs to state
and hence is regulated by "license not a contract". That may be true in
the GNU Republic, but in the rest of the world IP licenses (to execise
exclusive right protected by IP laws; EULAs aside for a moment) are
contracts.
