> They used legal language that allows them much more latitude than what they require. It's the same trap that people fall in to when site terms of use ask for worldwide, royalty-free, irrevocable license to content that you post. Yeah, that sounds like it's a horrible nastyness, but from a legal point of view that wording is a safety net for the company, not an attempt to claim actual rights over contributed content. MS has completely failed to control the message here, and everyone's working themselves into a groupthink riot, just like they did over the Ok Google binary blob nonsense.
