By furnishing your User Content to Medium, you give Medium a broad license to use and exploit your User Content as it operates and evolves its business.
Gave me the creeps. What follows, I realised, is even worse.
"Business evolution," there goes a clear-cut concept.
- hablahaha 13y agoI wonder if they could've left off the word 'exploit'. I feel like 'use' in this case essentially means 'potential to exploit'...
- pbhjpbhj 13y agoThey probably realise that few people will read the user agreement. That they may as well claim the heavens and the deep-blue sea despite only wanting to have the entirety of the the landmass, that way no one can successfully sue them later saying they "exploited" them. Medium can just respond "that's what you signed up to".
