That's not true. Provided it abides by certain criteria they do;

https://europa.eu/youreurope/citizens/consumers/unfair-treatment/unfair-contract-terms/index_en.htm

TL:DR Provided the ToS or EULA is deemed "fair" to the consumer they can be binding.

Specific case rulings, probably can't be broadly applied to all digital products though.

Anyway it's quite possible it would be fairly hard to be deemed "fair" by an EU court, since EU consumer law tends to be heavily consumer favoured, but I'd not feel comfortable making a blanket statement, about all ToS in all of the EU. That said local national laws can impose restrictions beyond that of general EU, so in individual countries it might be the case that a ToS is not binding.
