| ▲ | littlecranky67 2 hours ago | parent | prev | next [-] | | And how were those license conditions violated by downloading? Their are permissive in the first place, and violating without passing on to a third party is almost impossible. | | |

| ▲ | littlecranky67 2 hours ago | parent | next [-] | | Supposedly they are, that is enforceable how? Download is not anything. Training AI on them is not anything. Using the trained model is not a violation of the terms just because you think it should be. | | |
| ▲ | ffsm8 2 hours ago | parent [-] | | i see. as long as i can download Software that is made available for free for students its completely legal to do so and use them commercially as a non-student, after all its freely downloadable. good thing you explained how copyright works legally, almost spend my money unnecessarily. | | |

The download itself is not subject to copyright - licensing terms may or may not apply - and just because the license text says something doesn't mean it holds up in court. | | |
| ▲ | ffsm8 6 minutes ago | parent [-] | | Til you can download something without copying said something. Wouldve been great to know for people that have been found guilty after downloading illegal and unlicensed content. Fyi, the nation you mentioned (Germany) adheres to a much stricter concept called Urheberrecht. Under this regulation, you're actually in even more legal trouble. Though Roblox ain't German, so kinda irrelevant, admittedly |
