Why Is This ToS Different From All The Other ToSes?
I've seen several people saying that the language in FanLib's ToS is no different than the language in any other online service provider's ToS (specifically LJ's), and that's simply not true -- there are some provisions in FanLib's ToS that are very different, and very disturbing to my eyes. If people are interested in why I think this, the full analysis is in my journal.
(For those of y'all who don't know me: hi, I'm the one on the LJ team who's always asking "but what can we do for fandom?")
I'm staying out of the arguments regarding FanLib itself, but I wanted to just clear up the ToS-related stuff. As I said there, I'm happy to clarify things further, though I am not a lawyer and I can't provide legal advice.
