Why would they? Most sites TOS already stipulate that by uploading data to the service, you grant a global irrevocable unlimited license to use all submitted data for any business purpose without your further consent. I'd be surprised if Twitter didn't have this for years.
- nextaccountic 3y agoIf they are changing the TOS now that's because past TOS didn't allow them to do it. And previous interactions are governed by past TOS
- nerdponx 3y agoMost TOS documents are so broadly written that they are pretty much a blank check anyway. Seems like a CYA thing on the company's end.
- nextaccountic 3y agoIf that's the case, then Twitter would have no need to change the TOS; their usage would already be permitted and changing the TOS would serve only to bring additional scrutiny
