If you don’t give them a license to display the works you give them to display, how can they legally display it?
Perpetual and irrevocable? And with the right to modify, not just display? You do not need all that.
and "(with the right to sublicense)"
If my company presented such user agreement I would be quickly reported by users to local Office of Competition and Consumer Protection, audited, fined, and ordered to change that.
I think this would be even challenged at the level of "Abusive clauses registry" that office maintains, so the agreement would be quickly overruled in court.
If no specific clause would be challenged, this is an example of "grossly violates the consumer's interests" rule.
How is big tech allowed to push this shit anywhere? How is this legal in civilized world?

I have plenty of ability to read, but I never read these T&Cs because they’re usually dozens of pages long and life’s too short (or, if you prefer, the cost/benefit doesn’t support it). For consumers in Europe, at least, it’s usually safe to assume that anything too shitty is unenforceable, which helps.
Being “unenforceable” doesn’t stop them making your life a misery in the process, ruining your credit rating etc.
As an EUian,I've never given one care about my credit rating. I don't even know if I have one.
They can cause a long drawn out court battle, and abuse your data. Noyb is the real-world example here. Most companies depend on not being sued, and will fold if a regulater sends them notice.

every website ever (except for github) has this exact same clause and everytime it's posted online, people freak out about it lol

Re: Cloudflare Drop
#249Wow the people in this thread are a huge bummer. This is much cooler and I doubt this is a real safety issue. You can already sign up for a free cloudflare account and deploy it for free, on your own, on a free workers.dev domain. The friction removal here isn't going to meaningfully change the security / amount of malicious content.
Well according to the people in this thread it was previously impossible for bad actors to host a website, and CloudFlare has now given them this unique ability.
Same folks who are very concerned AI will give malicious actors the ability to produce text containing falsehoods.

I'm always really doubtful this is applicable in the end, especially in the EU. You can't give up all your copyright like this
Regardless, I'm not one to use or otherwise promote such shitty behavior. Not sure why cloudflare seems to be in such good standing on hn.
Early on, they had 30 points of presence with 11 employees - cool, but especially cool to John Galt fans.
