Even without being a lawyer that seems pretty clear that it is not legal.
Unless you have Reddits written permission, which I guess the Archive Team has
- dark-star 3y agoon the contrary, I read this as "it is allowed, unless your local laws allow us to restrict you from doing it" ;-)
- 3np 3y agoThat "except and solely" is what makes it very much not clear at all. They're basically saying "we make these demands iff applicable law allows us to do so".
- TazeTSchnitzel 3y agoI would guess that Archive Team don't ask for permission before acting, and certainly don't wait. The sad truth is that copyright law is not on their side. They preserve cultural memory because they believe in it, and they get away with it only because they're a disorganised collective of volunteers, so there's little to gain from suing them.
