Probably a good idea to never use.

I’m pretty sure I’ve seen that exact same boilerplate legal template in a video of a writer or something (essentially saying that if you agree to X publisher publishing your work, they are granted unlimited access to the IP, eg derivative work etc).

I think this kind of boilerplate is becoming more common after GPT, as any and all data becomes even more valuable to resell.

Unrelated: You can definitely tell that poor guy Louis is loosing his sleep over those issues :eye: :eye:

Develop locally, deploy globally®

Very bad… i mean … if i rent a server webespace.
I would think that it is safe, even the admins can not access.

Very complex nowadays to find any good service anyway …

thanks for the heads up . Gonna sweep through all my projects and see if any is deployed on Vultr, then will propagate the message to my network. I think they will see some hundred customers poofing away in just the next few hours.

They can damage control all they want, but that was unacceptable.

“It’s clearly causing confusion for some portion of users. We recognize that the average user doesn’t have a law degree,” Kardwell said.
this phrase alone grants Vultr to never do business with me ever.
