That’s true, but most of the terms are scoped as “to provide the service.” This is explicitly scoped to allow them to do anything “in all media formats and channels now known or later developed anywhere in the world” and even claims to be able to use your name and voice and possibly photo if it’s “connected” with your content. I can’t imagine something this broad would be held up in courts but who knows.

Yes, they do, which is unsettling and why I’ve decided not to give them any more content.

Yeah, I find it extremely off putting how they feel so confident to declare ownership over content we all gave them and built for free. Worse, at the same time they accuse US of being freeloaders! If I’m contributing free content I expect at a minimum some respect and civility in return, not being treated like some free slave labour.

They came after a small sub I moderate today too. My response was to make a sticky post to the sub with the contents of the mod mail and a recommendation for everyone to move to kbin or lemmy. I hadn’t planned on giving reddit any more free content anyways given their behaviour.

Others have been reporting that their deleted or shredded comments are restored the next day. Are yours actually staying deleted up to the 1000 limit?
