Those terms may be standard for "countless websites" but Google has lost all credibility IMO as of recently for things like this, which is why people are freaking out about this. Otherwise people would give Google the benefit of the doubt.
We don't trust Google anymore... they are evil. THAT'S what this furor is all about.
- rayiner 14y agoThe article is spot-on. This language is not just common, it is necessary. E.g. You want Google Docs to be able to save your documents to PDF? Well, you need to give them permission to create derivative works.
- john41 14y agoYou really think that's what the derivative works thing relates to? I highly doubt that... changing the file format of a document and saving it for your use is not a derivative work. A derivative work is taking your data and adding to it, tweaking it, mashing it up with some other data and releasing it to the public...sort of like what google does with the SERPS already...hey wait... :-p
