reading Apple license agreement.
Apr. 18th, 2023 11:23 amObviously I have no right to post this.
As well as retweet anything, or repost anything, or post a picture of anything that I took a picture of.
"No Reverse Engineering. You may not, and you agree not to or enable others to, copy (except as expressly permitted by this License or by the Usage Rules if they are applicable to you), decompile, reverse engineer, disassemble, attempt to derive the source code of, decrypt, modify, or create derivative works of the Apple Software or any services provided by the Apple Software or any part thereof (except as and only to the extent any foregoing restriction is prohibited by applicable law or by licensing terms governing use of Open-Sourced Components that may be included with the Apple Software)."
I guess if somebody borrows my computer, without signing the agreement, they can reverse-engineer it ad libitum, right?
"Compliance with Laws. You agree to use the Apple Software and the Services (as defined in Section 6 below) in compliance with all applicable laws, including local laws of the country or region in which you reside or in which you download or use the Apple Software and Services. Features of the Apple Software and the Services may not be available in all languages or regions and some features may vary by region. An Internet connection is required for some features of the Apple Software and Services."
Oh, so I install the software in the US and then can go ahead and use it wherever I'm not residing. Cool!
"System Characters. Subject to the terms and conditions of this License, you may use the Memoji characters included in or created with the Apple Software (“System Characters”): (i) while running the Apple Software; and (ii) to create your own original content and projects for your personal, non-commercial use. No other use of the System Characters is permitted by this License, including but not limited to the use, reproduction, display, performance, recording, publishing or redistribution of any of the System Characters in a profit, non-profit, public sharing or commercial context."So, I can use them in my content, but not show it to anybody. And not copy my files with these "system characters".
"You further agree not to use the Services in any manner to harass, abuse, stalk, threaten, defame or otherwise infringe or violate the rights of any other party, and that Apple is not in any way responsible for any such use by you, nor for any harassing, threatening, defamatory, offensive, infringing or illegal messages or transmissions that you may receive as a result of using any of the Services."
Can't say Путин хуйло, or something like this, but Apple does not care actually.
"11. Export Control. You may not use or otherwise export or reexport the Apple Software except as authorized by United States law and the laws of the jurisdiction(s) in which the Apple Software was obtained. In particular, but without limitation, the Apple Software may not be exported or re-exported (a) into any U.S. embargoed countries or (b) to anyone on the U.S. Treasury Department’s list of Specially Designated Nationals or the U.S. Department of Commerce Denied Person’s List or Entity List or any other restricted party lists. By using the Apple Software, you represent and warrant that you are not located in any such country or on any such list. You also agree that you will not use the Apple Software for any purposes prohibited by United States law, including, without limitation, the development, design, manufacture or production of missiles, nuclear, chemical or biological weapons."
As I understand, Fauci can't use Apple computers. As well as Prigozhin and Fridman and Simonyan.
And in the end, who can use Yahoo on a Mac:
