Sometimes it's fun to read you're tos.

Some times it's just fun to read the terms of service for something. This great example came from iTunes.

iTunes said:

10. 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 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. 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 these products for any purposes prohibited by United States law, including, without limitation, the development, design, manufacture or production of missiles, or nuclear, chemical or biological weapons.

It just had to be put in there.

...you read this stuff?

[The REAL Joey]

...Wow. Just... Wow.

I thought I had seen everything stupid the world could possibly offer and then this little gem pops up. As if people would use Apple stuff for the design of LOLWARHEADS. I usually have a quick glance of T.O.S. stuff but i've never seen anything of that calibre. Seriously.

The ProBoards T.O.S. pales in comparison to the one you provided Arz. I can't really remember anything particularly amusing about that. Aside from how many people ignore it. *thinks to all the forums with a LOLMATURE board which endangers the forum's existence).

[Arzadon]

xD I skim read it once, but my Graphic Art's teacher pointed it out to me last year.

Btw Mr. Z is one of the best teachers ever.

So, does that mean it is not in the ToS of ProBoards to make nuclear weapons?

LET'S DO THIS

[The REAL Joey]

*waves finger* There is SOMETHING that restricts that. No forum is allowed to: "Advocate the violent overthrow of the government of the United States"

So if you're planning to nuke elsewhere, then by all means.

[Nada]

What about the entire world? Is the world okay since it isn't just limited to the United States?

[Arzadon]

Lets do it!
Those fools won't know what hit em! If we do it outside the US.

[revolvingscott]

I'm a fool outside the US!

[Nada]

Does that mean that the fools from outside the US is on to... us?

[Julia ♥♥]

I'm not sure if it's on there anyone, but the directions that came with the Ipod Nano instructed you not to eat it.

[The REAL Joey]

Not to eat it?! Are Apple that sure of themselves their product look THAT good or what?

Then again, if push came to shove and I was on a deserted island with not much left to eat. I'd certainly try eating a chunk of a nano just for SOME nutrients. ;D

[Arzadon]

I saw it on the warrenty for iTunes a month or so ago. Thats where I copied it from. xDD

Well technically it is not overthrowing. There would be no government left so technically how it is written it is perfectly legal to make a forum about nukes and then nuke the US. Thank you government class.
