So EA violated this term – they could have emailed or DMed me but didn’t, and also gave no notice when i commented.
Also the terms don’t specify that the CC BY stuff doesn’t apply before dec 1, 2022. They should. Someone reading the terms might think that all the old stuff is CC BY and act accordingly. The terms should also include the relevant text from the older terms so people know what terms still, today, govern all the older posts. Deleting the terms that still actively govern older posts today from the terms of use doesn’t make sense.
