They also don't want to be sued, so yes, this is the lowest effort way to limit their liability.

Out of curiosity, is it just rights to use or ownership rights? Not saying the former is good, but it's still better than the latter.
In many cases, its a CYA policy just so they don't have to ask permission for every single image. Hopefully they're the respectful type that will either remove or blur the student upon request.
It was either that or let Musk get away with stock market manipulation. Hard to tell which is worse at this point but I personally think him losing billions of dollars of investor money will hopefully cause then to think twice about giving him money in the future. That is, if Trump loses in 2024.
I have a growing suspicion that the goal was to intentionally delegitimize Twitter to the extent that one of the major social networks becomes an unmitigated misinformation factory - moreso than it was before. That seems like something billionaire investors might be willing to dump some serious cash into.
That's been apparent since about a month or two after the sale was final. One of the very first things he did was invite Trump back
It's weird to me that a company of this size is just that inept. It's like once they have enough momentum, nothing can stop them.
I don't get why they don't get it. Huge numbers of people simply can't afford to invest $400 - $1000 on VR hardware. Those that can have not been adequately convinced of the value and a glorified chat room is never gonna cut it.

So even me, a tech leader who always hops on the cool new tech toys (I mean, I am posting on Lemmy right now after all) isn't all that interested. Which means I'm not talking it up to people I know. Now ask my friends about my opinion of the Steam Deck and whether it influenced them to buy one. This is Business 101 stuff that the multi-billion dollar company can't seem to figure out.
It sort of does. "Our vendor signed legally binding documents that they were responsible for vetting and verifying all parts. Sue them, not us."
Unless by risk you mean an airplane falling out of the sky...
Alpha move. Asserting dominance even from the grave.

Android is probably my biggest privacy hole right now. I've considered alternatives but none of them particularly appeal to me. I moved away from Gmail, Google Voice, Chrome/chromium, deleted Facebook, etc... But android has some deep tendrils.
What's your take on Graphene?
