Apologies if this has been posted before.

I think its worth a re-post - i was unaware they were changing T&C's, I assume many other users will be in the same boat.

WOW! so there is such a thing as a free lunch and a wide range of 'content' hosts... AND at least one popular 'free' editor get you to pay for it and stump-up for the tip as well.

Use it? Dump it.

I wonder why they have changed the terms after all this time they must know it'll push users to other editors and the new terms are not making them any more money.

Like a hell of a lot of developers (and webmasters) they rely on the fact that it's as rare as hens teeth that anyone actually reads through reams of legalese gobbledygook before they agree to install what they need to use (... mea culpa... guilty as charged).

Even if they manage to lose a third of their current users: there'll be another load of new users along shortly who won't bother to read the T's & C's before they hit "okay" and they're back in the business of selling you wholesale with neither your knowledge, explicit permission nor a red cent of compensation.

You've got to admire their brass balls though. Openly stating the equivalent of "... We're going to screw you silly, sell your name and identity, claim all royalties for your work and tie you into a lifetime contract that means what you've done and what you're going to do in the future while using our editor and platform is our asset and you can do bugger-all about it..."
