Having skimmed across the language briefly it seemed like a non-exclusive licence grant, which means that your rights are not affected. So this is not a copyright transfer, which would be an exclusive licence grant. po> What I don't know and understand is, if this means that YouTube po> has the right to reduce the freedoms on the content. I am not sure if I understand your question correctly. YouTube can certainly not restrict what you do, so if you authorised certain uses, they cannot undo that grant. But they might offer it in their own site with different terms, so users might not know that they have more permissions directly from you. Regards, Georg -- Georg C. F.
